THE RHODE ISLAND TEACHERS' READING CIRCLE, 



Every member of the Rhode Island Institute of Instruction is a member of the Reading 
Circle. There are no extra fees. It is recommended that each shall read at least one volume 
in Pedagogy. By reading three pages a day. five days in the week, one can read a volume 
of 400 pages before the next annual meeting in Octobei*. Those who are teaching history, 
literature or any subject in the other departments will find it helpful to read the books recom- 
mended bj^ the directors of those departments. The Directors will be glad to answer any 
inquiries or to give further information to any who desire it, in relation to books, methods of 
study, or other points of interest in their departments. 

The following are the various departments and the books recommended in each: — 

I. PEDAGOGY. 
Thomas J. Mokgan, Director. 

" Theory and Practice of Teaching." By David P. Page. A new edition, edited and en- 
larged by W. H. Payne, Professor of the Science and Art of Teaching, in the University of 
Michigan. (A. S. Barnes & Co.) This has long been recognized as one of the best of books for 
young teachers. In a very pleasing and impressive way the author discusses The Spirit, The 
Habits, and Qualifications of the Teacher, Modes of Teaching, Proper Incentives to Study, 
School Government, School Arrangements, and other Topics pertaining to Good School 
Keeping. 

The following is suggested as a plan of reading: First, read the Author's Preface, the 
Editor's Preface and the Biographical Sketch. Next, study the Table of Contents for a gen- 
eral view of the scope of the work. Then read the book through in not less than eight con- 
secutive weeks. First week, chapters 1 to 5; 2nd, c. 6-8; 3d, c. 9; 4th, c. 10; 5th, c. 11; 6th, 
c. 12-14; 7th, c. 15; 8th, c. 16-17. 

In connection with the reading of each chapter make a brief written analysis of the main 
points. Lastly, as a means of review, turn to the index and by its aid read, in different parts 
of the book, all that the author says on any topic, for example " Education," "Mind," " Pun- 
ishment." &c. Those who have already read Page, may find it profitable to read either Lan- 
don's School Management or Fitch's Lectures on Teaching. 

II. HISTORY. 

E. Benjamin Andrews, Director. 

Plan for a Tear's Study in History. We address now those wishing counsel more as begin- 
ners, desirous of laying a good foundation for historical acquisitions. The best single volume 
for guidance in this is Fisher's Outlines of Universal History, (Ivison, Blakeman, Taylor & Co.. 
1886). Younger teachers, or those whose time is very limited, might well adopt Barnes's General 
History, which contains nearly as many pages as Fisher, but much less than half the matter. 
We recommend the studious and careful perusal of three pages each week day in advance, and 
of three in review. This will finish either book in about two hundred days, leaving ample 
time for a day's special review of each chapter as soon as completed, and for glancing back from 
time to time over entire periods in order to summarize them, or over specially difficult sec- 
tions to make sure of having penetrated them. We urge, to accompany this reading: 1. 
Diligent study of the maps. 3. The making, after each advance reading, of a brief analysis 
of what has been read. It may be pencilled on the margin. In reviews, try to fix these 
analyses, or the main items of them, in the mind, but not to memorize anything verbatim. 
As- you proceed, make more and more your own analyses, independently of the order of 
topics in the book, and see if you cannot improve on this. 3. The endeavor, after having 
gone over any great period, as the Ancient East, Greece, Rome, etc., to sum up the main 



events and characteristics of it as much as possible without recurrence to your notes. If, 
however, the mind has received no pronounced impression, canvass the notes afresh, and if 
necessary, re-read entirely. 4. The examination of encj'^clopedias and other works of refer- 
ence, on great historical characters who interest you, as well as on any matters which the 
text-book may leave obscure. 5. Conversation with others upon what has been read. Use 
historical illustrations in your teaching, not only in history, 'but where feasible in other 
branches. Several teachers may well read together, provided each will be entirely frank and 
fearless in exposing his or her ignorance by raising questions. Timidity here is the curse of 
large circles of this kind. Two or three intimate friends are in less danger. Lastly, do not 
cumber the mind with many dates. A few, as when the oldest pyramids were probably built, 
first Olympiad, founding of Rome, Roman coronation of Charlemagne, beginning and end of 
the Crusades, of Reformation, of Thirty Years' War, of Civil Wars in England, and of the 
French Revolution, should be mastered, but no idea is more perverse than that the memory 
of dates constitutes historical learning.^ Those who have to teach history will of course find 
a much larger knowledge of dates indispensable. 

III. LITERATURE. 
Sarah E. Doyle, Director. 

A History of American Literature. By Moses Coit Tyler. Vols. I, II. New York: G. P. 
Putnam's Sons. 

To select from the vast field of literature one book for the Reading Circle is to impose a 
task equal to that of solving the riddle of the sphinx. It ought to be one interesting to all 
intelligent readers and valuable for its learning. Such a one it is believed "A History of 
American Literature " will be found to be. 

Thus far only two volumes have been published which treat of the period from 1607 to 
1765, the year of the Stamp Act. It may be thought that the early literature of this country 
could not prove interesting, but Prof. Tyler has succeeded in discussing the subject in so 
attractive a style that his book is delightful to read. In giving the lives of the authors much 
light is thrown upon the manners and customs of the early days while many extracts from 
their writings are interesting, often racy. Capt. John Smith, John Cotton, Wigglesworth, 
the Mathers, Jonathan Edwards, and a host of other Puritan worthies are vividly portrayed. 
To Roger Williams is accorded such praise for his virtues that the most ardent Rhode Islander 
will be gratified. 

IV. LANGUAGE. 

L. W. Russell, Director. 

The following books are recommended for reading and .study in " Lnmjuage ;" 

Words and Their Uses, Past and Present. Richard Grant White. Third Edition revised and 
corrected. Boston: Houghton, Mifflin & Co.; 455 pp. with index. Every Day English ; a 
sequel to " Words and their Uses." 503 pp. Same author and publishers. 

The first of the books recommended above is not regarded as one to be "read through " 
then to be dropped as though " finished," neither as one necessarily to be taken in course. The 
thirteen chapters are all, however, worthy of careful perusal, and some will undoubtedly 
stimulate to further study of the topics treated. As a book of reference, ahso, it will be found 
of value. 

The book contains much valuable information concerning the use and abuse of words 
and phrases employed in the current speech of the people. 

The vigorous pen of the author naturally provokes discussion and criticism, and some of 
his reviewers would hardly commend him as a safe guide. The only caution, however, which 
the director of this department has to ofifer is, that the reader of the above book shall not 
surrender his own good sense and judgment to the sometimes self-assertive style of its 
author. 

To one who has become interested in " Words and Their Uses," the reading of the "SeqtieV 
will not willingly be neglected. 



V. aEOGRAPHY. 
James M. SAwnsr, Director. 

In the Department of Geography the following books are suggested: First, Geographical 
Studies by Carl Ritter. Van Antwerp, Bragg &'Co. Second, Around the "World, E. D. G. 
Prime. Harper & Brothers. 

The first is allied to the subject of geography in the sense of technical geographical matter; 
the second is a book of travels and gives much information useful to the teacher of geography 
and may be considered as collateral reading for general information. 

VI. SCIENCE. 
William E. Wilson, Director. 

Temperance Teachings of Science, by A. B. Palmer, M. D., LL.D. of the University of 
Michigan, with an introduction by Mrs. Livermore, has just been issued by D. C. Heath & 
Co., of Boston. It was prepared expressly for the use of teachers and older pupils in the 
public schools, and is a plain and brief exposition of the effects of alcoholic liquors on the 
human body from the standpoint of a physician and scientific scholar. The book covers only 
the one topic and assumes as a matter of course some knowledge of human physiology. 

One chapter treats of the origin and properties of alcohol and of the composition of alco- 
holic liquors; another of the " Parts and Qualities of the Human System," very briefly 
described; and the rest of the book deals in order with the effects of alcoholics upon the 
stomach and liver, the lungs, the heart, the kidneys and the nervous system. 

It is a very convenient and very neat volume of about one hundred and sixty pages.

THE RHODE ISLAND TEACHERS' READING CIRCLE. 



Every member of the Rhode Island Institute of Instruction is a member of the Reading 
Circle. There are no extra fees. It is recommended that each shall read at least one volume 
in Pedagogy. By reading three pages a day, five days in the week, one can read a volume of 
400 pages before the next annual meeting in October Those who are teaching history, litera- 
ture or any subject in the other departments will find it helpful to read the books recommended 
by the directors of those departments The Directors will be glad to answer any inquiries or 
to give further information to any who desire it, in relation to books, methods of study, or 
other points of interest in their departments. 

The following are the various department^ and the books recommended in each : — 

I. PEDAGOGY. 

H.' S, Tarbell, Director. 

" The Elements of Pedagogy," by E. E. White, LL.D., Superintendent of the Public Schools 
of Cincinnati, is published by Van Antwerp, Bragg & Co , Cincinnati. It is a book of 336 
pages, and is sold at $1.00. 

It has first 90 pages of the Elements of Psychology, taking up two divisions of the human 
mind, the sensibility and the intellect. Principles of Teaching occupy 25 pages ; Methods of 
Teaching (general) are treated in 80 pages ; and to Methods of Teaching Special Branches, — 
Reading, Language, Grammar, Geography and Arithmetic, — are assigned 100 pages. A very 
admirable essay on Moral Training, or the Training of the Will, completes the volume, whicli 
has a good index, and is an able, sound, sensible exposition of what is latest and best in educa- 
tional theory. 

II. HISTORY. 

J. Milton Hall, Director. 

Genekal History. — Fisher's " Outlines of Universal Ilistory" published by Ivison, Blake- 
man, Taylor & Co. See "Plan for a Tear's Study in History," in the Manual of the R. I In- 
stitute of Instruction for January, 1886. Price !{;3 00. 

U. S. History — For those who wish an extended course, no work equals the revised edition 
of Bancroft's work, published by D Appleton & Co , supplemented by McMaster's "History 
of the People of the United States." published by the same firm. $2.50 per vol. 

For those Avho wish in a single inexpensive volume a work covering nearly the whole period 
of our nation's history, a work abounding in " cross-references," clearly expressed, concise, and 
a most valuable reference book for the teacher, Johnston's " History of the United St at-cs" is 
recommended. It is published by Henry Holt & Co.; price $1.00. Read the author's Preface 
and Suggestions carefully. P. O. address of each publisher, New York. 

III. LITERATURE. 

Julia M. Darrow, Director. 

"Masterpieces in English Literature," with Notes and Suggestions by Homer B Spraguc, is 
especially adapted to use in the local Circles, where, it is hoped, that many of the teachers in 



our State shall meet for the mutual study of the books recommended in this Manual. I\Ir. 
Sprague is known as a teacher of wide experience in English Literature, and a careful review 
of his work in this book only increases our confidence in him as a leader in this department. 
The choice of authors and their representative work is most wise, the notes are scholarly and 
suggestive, and the book can but be helpful to those who shall bring to its reading a sincere 
desire for aid in the study of authors. 

Somewhat out of the usual line in the study of typical authors is the " Manual of English 
Prose Literature," by William Minto. The aim of this work is to aid not oulj' in the choice of 
what to read, but— a choice having been made— 7;(?w to read to the best advantage and with tlie 
greatest pleasure Its method is original and philosophical, and may possibly not be attractive 
to the casual or superficial reader, but will be very useful to the careful, thoughtful student in 
English Literature.

lishing Co., Boston, Mass. f 1.50.

Boston, Mass. $1.00. 

All teachers, of whatever grade of pupils, should be familiar with the subject of rhetoric in 
order that its principles, without their technical names, may l)e applied to every sentence that 
is framed in the school-room. Prof. Hill's book may be read through with interest every j'ear. 
The fascinating style in which it is written, the incisive distinction it makes between what is 
good English and what is not, among expressions even that are common with intelligent people, 
and the perfect wealth of illustrations, quoted chapter and verse from standard authors, take 
the work quite out of the realm of ordinary school books, and give it a power to hold attention 
equal to that of a good novel. 

A teacher of language must recognize the grammatical floor-plan of any proper sentence, 
with all the relations, chief and subordinate, contained in it, as clearly as one sees the main 
and the side stieets upon a city map. Very little time is needed for one interested to grasp 
thus the essential facts of grammar. It is to the illustration of its principles in the learner's 
own composition, in imitation of good examples, that the time must be given — every illustration 
being also subjected to rhetorical tests. One of the chief recommendations of tlie rhetoric 
named, as of the grammar, is its large collection of choice examples, not merely composed for 
the occasion, but selected from real literature in ihe course of the author's wide reading. 

If there is any feeling of surprise at the suggestion of simple text-books in language rather 
than of treatises upon methods, we trust the Reading Circle will remember what old teachers 
have learned by experience, namely, that the, problem of how to teach a subject can be profit- 
ably entertained only after the other problem of what to teach is well in hand, wlien it will 
often be found that the first problem has solved itself, or, at all events, that both problems 
have merged into one. 

V. GEOGRAPHY. 

Geo. E. Cnuiicii, Director. 

" Eartli and 3fan," \ty A.vi\o\([G\iyoi; published by Chas. Scribner's Sons. $125 "The 
Alhambra and the Kremlin," by S. 1 Prime ; published by A D. F Randolph ct Co. $2 00. 
"Boy Travellers in South America," by T. W. Knox ; published by Harper it Brothers. 
$3.00. P. O. address of each publisher, New York. 

The names of three books are given and the following plan of reading is suggested : — 
(1.) "Earth and Man." This work consists of twelve lectures, which aim in an illustrative 



way to present the intimate relation of the position, surface and climate of a country to its 
industrial and national life. The careful study of this book is well supplemented by the read- 
ing of (2) " The Alhamhra and tTie Kremlin," or, " Boy Travellers in South America." The for- 
mer presents the contrasts in the physical and social conditions of Southern and Northern 
Europe ; the latter is one of the best of quite a large class of books recently published, the plan 
of which is clearly indicated by its title. 

VI. SCIENCE. 
F. E. Thompson, Director. 

" TTie Scotch Naturalist" by Samuel Smiles. Published by Harper & Brothers, New York. 
Price fl.OO. 

This book has been selected not with the intention of furnishing information in Natural 
History, but that the members of the Eeading Circle might have an eminent example of perse- 
verance in a favorite subject under the most adverse circumstances. It is not technical, but 
will be found to be very interesting reading, and at the same time will impart considerable 
knowledge of the kinds, habits and characteristics of insects and birds, together with a limited 
fauna of the Scottish coast.

THE RHODE ISLAND TEACHERS' READING CIRCLE. 



Every member of the Rhode Island Institute of Instruction is a member of the Reading 
Circle. There are no extra fees. It is recommended that each shall read at least one volume 
in Pedagogy. By reading three pages a day, five days in the week, one can read a volume of 
400 pages before the next annual meeting in October. Those who are teaching history, liter- 
ature or any subject in the other departments will find it helpful to read the books recom- 
mended by the Directors of those departments. The Directors will be glad to answer any 
inquiries or to give further information to any who desire it, in relation to books, methods 
of study, or other points of interest in their departments. 

The following are the various deijartments and the books recommended in each: — 

I. PEDAGOGY. 
Thomas B. Stockwell, Director. 

Rousseau's " jE^/mfe " or Pestalozzi's " Leonard and Gertrude." Published by D. C. Heath 
&Co., Boston. Price, 75 cents each. 

Prince's " Courses and MetJiods." Published by Ginn & Co., Boston. Price 75 cents. 

The course of reading recommended for the ensuing year is a double one, combining both 
theory and practice. In the first two books recommended we have the substance in an 
attractive form of two educational classics. There is little in modern pedagogj^ that does 
not go back to Rousseau and Pestalozzi, and it has seemed to me wise to direct The attention 
of teachers to these two sources of the present system of educational training and culture. 

Einile is the earlier in point of time and is more thorough in its treatment of the subject, 
covering the whole province of education from birth to youth. There is but little pretense 
to a story although it is called a romance. There are positions taken from which we shall 
probably dissent, but on the other hand we shall ^be surprised to find how much there is 
with which we shall agree. 

Leonard and Oertrude is quite an entertaining story of peasant life in Europe which shows 
how the introduction of correct principles of life and action, especially in connection with 
the training of the young, maj^ reform a community and impart to it a new and a higher life. 

A careful reading of either or both of these little books will amply repay the cost of time 
and money in the sUmulus they will afford and the opportunity they will give for a re-adjust- 
ment and a new settlement of our plans of action. 

Prince's Courses and Methods has been chosen; First. In the belief that to a great many 
teachers its outline of a regular, progressive and symmetrical order of studies will be of great 
help. Much good teaching is rendered practically of little value for the lack of just such a 
basis as this book will furnish. 

Second, Because its plans for the presentation of the various subjects of Reading, Spelling, 
Writing, Language, Grammar, Geography, Arithmetic, History, Physiology and Hygiene, 
Drawing, Singing, Observation Lessons and Information Lessons are believed to be valuable 
both in themselves and as models for the teacher's use in other directions. It is essentially a 
"hand book " for the school- room. 

II. HISTORY, 

F. W. TiLTON, Director. 

Nowhere is systematic study more essential than in the Department of History. Before 
attempting to recommend a course of reading and study for the next year, I have deemed it 
important to inquire what the work of the " Reading Circle" has been in this direction. I 
find that two years ago the members were advised to read Fisher's Outlines of Universal His- 
tory, and suggestions of the greatest value were given by Prof. Andews as to the method and 
spirit in which the work sLiould be done. I heartily recommend that these suggestions be 
again brought, in some convenient form, within reach of every member of the " Reading 
Circle." A j^ear ago the same book was again recommended, with a suggestion that the 
members also follow a course of reading upon United States History. 

These recommendations are in entire harmony with what I believe to be the true method 
of historical study, viz. : to begin with a general view of the whole field of history, and then 
to pass on to more minute study of important periods. This method is adopted and 



carried out almost to perfection in the schools of Germany, and there is little doubt that it 
will become more prevalent in our own schools, than it has been in the past. The medical 
student does not make a minute study of the heart before he has any idea of the structure of 
the body as a whole. Critical study of a brief epoch in the history of a single people, with 
no knowledge of earlier or contemporaneous events, is scarcely more sensible 

I deem it wise to read with great care a good summary of General History every year. An 
ordinary memory needs this amount of quickening to keep the cardinal events clearly 
defined. Something is to be gained, doubtless, by occasionally changing the book used for 
this purpose. Fresh interest is thus awakened, and the facts are presented to the mind in 
different liglits. As special attention has been given to Enited States History the past year, 
it seems to me advisable to suggest that a reasonably full work upon English History be now 
mastered. I accordingly recommend the following courses for the ensuing year: 

(A) General History.— A careful reading of one or more of the following, observing 
the suggestions of Prof. Andrews, regarding abstracts, etc. : Fisher's O'ltlines of Univerml 
History; Miss Sheldon's General History; Myers' Outlines of Ancient, Mediairal and Modern 
History, 2 vols.; Freeman's General Sketch of History; Outlines of the World's HisUyry, by 
Swinton. 

{B) English History.— A similar reading of Green's History of the English People, 4 
vols. Published at $6, can be bought for about $3.50. 

III. LITERATURE. 
Elizabeth C. Shepley, Director. 

1. Chaucer's Prologue to the Canterbury Tales, loith the KnighVs Tale. Clarendon Press 
edition. MacMillan, New York. 60 cents. 

2. Mrs. Oliphant's Makers of Florence. MacMillan. $3.25. 

3. Romola, in any edition. 

For any teachers who wish for text-books on English Literature nothing can be better 
than those proposed in the first year of the Reading Circle: Stopford Brooke's Primer ?iXii\ 
Mrs, Oliphant's Literary History of England. Those who have read these, especially if they 
have added Taine's English Literature, and who wish for any advice in the selection of litera- 
ture for delight and refreshment, are heartily recommended to the books I have named at the 
head of ray paper. In the first and second they will find an agreeable introduclion to the 
earliest great poet of the English language, and to the sources from which he largely drew 
his inspiration. In this connection tliey will readily be reminded to re-read George Eliot's 
story of Florence, Romola. 

IV. LANGUAGE. 
T. Whiting Bancroft, Director. 

I. The Life and Growth of Language, by Prof. W. D. Whitney, in the International Scien- 
tific Series, published by D. Appleton & Co., New York. 326 pp. 

II. The Philology of the English Tongue, by Prof. John Earle. Oxford, at the Clarendon 
Press. 700 pp. $1.75, third edition. 

III. The English Language, by Prof. J. M. D. Meiklejohn. D. C. Heath & Co., Boston. 
38« pp. 

These works are suggested as a comprehensive course of reading on the subject of lan- 
guage. 

The first is an outline of linguistic science, discussing such topics as how each individual 
acquires his language, change in the outer form of words, change in the inner content of 
words, loss of words and forms, production of new words and forms, the name-maUing pro- 
cess, Indo-European language, other families of language, nature and origin of language and 
the science of language. 

The second is an elementary philological treatise on the English language, embracing such 
subjects as a historic sketch of the rise and formation of tlie Engli.sh language, tlie English 
alphabet, spelling and pronunciation, the parts of speech, the verbal group, the noun group, 
the pronoun group, the link-word group, syntax, compounds and prosody. 

In a clear ;ind lucid miinner the author treats of the leading philological principles of the 
English language so that the whole subject is presented in a most attractive light. 

'The third work recommended is just published. It is a ccmdensed summary of the gram- 
mar, history and literature of the English language. It is divided into four i)arts: 

Part I is grammatical, considering such topics as etymology, syntax, analysis, word-build- 
ing and derivation, word branching, etc. 

Part II is rhetorical, presenting the subjects of composition, punctuation, figures of 
speech, paraphrasing, etc. 

Part III. is historical, with the following order of topics: the English language and the 
family to which it belongs, the periods of history of the English vocabulary, history of the 






.:grammar, specimens of English of different periods, modern English, and land-marks in the 
history of the English language. 

Part IV. contains a brief history of English literature with tables of English literature. 

V. GEOGRAPHY. 

Charlotte E. Deming, Director. 

The Earth as Modified by Human Action, by George P. Marsh, published by Charles 
Scribner's Sons. Price (edition of 1885), $2.70. 

This book is valuable for either consecutive or topical reading. The author was a wise 
observer of Nature in both hemispheres, as well of her minutest as of her grandest operations, 
and his conclusions are those of a scholarly, practical man. 

It is difficult to give an idea of the scope of the work by quoting a few of the subjects 
treated, but perhaps the following may be mentioned: 

Natural advantages and physical decay of the Roman Empire, reaction of man on nature, 
human and brute action on nature compared, limits of human power, physical conservation 
and restoration, origin of domestic plants, vegetable power of accommodation, influence of 
animal life on vegetation, origin and transfer of domestic quadrupeds, introduction of fish, 
birds and insects, utility and destruction of reptiles, marine and inland waters, sand dunes, 
projects of physical changes accomplished or proposed by man as cutting marine isthmuses — 
"Suez canal, Cape Cod canal, diversion of the Nile. 

The author has treated in an interesting manner the subjects— trees and their influence, 
American and European forests and forestry. 

In view of the increasing interest in trees and forests, owing to the observance of Arbor 
Day by our schools, it may not be out of place to call attention to Vol. 9 of the Tenth Census 
Report, which embodies the researches of Charles S. Sargent, professor of Arboriculture in 
Harvard University, and others, with relation to forest trees of North America. The bibli- 
ographical list which accompanies Mr. Marsh's book is excellent. 

VI. SCIENCE. 

George F. Weston, Director. 

Natural Science is especially useful in quickening the perceptive powers of pupils; and 
that teachers may be aided in this line we recommend the following guides for science teach- 
ing: 

I. About Pebbles. Prof. Alpheus Hyatt. 

II. Concerning a Few Common Plants. Prof. George Goodale. 
IQ. First Lessons in Natural History. Mrs. Elizabeth Agassiz, 

IV. Hydroids and Corals. Prof. Hyatt. 

V. Commercial and other Sponges. Prof. Hyatt. 

VI. First Lessons in Minerals. Miss E H. Richards. 

VII. Common Minerals and Rocks. Prof. W. O. Crosby. 

These little volumes are issued by Heath & Co., Boston, Mass. Nos. 1, 2 and 6, costing 
ten cents each, mailing price. No. 3, twenty-five cents. Nos. 4 and o, twenty cents. No. 7, 
twenty-five cents.

THE RHODE ISLAND TEACHERS' READING CIRCLE. 



Every member of the Rhode Island Institute of Instruction is a member of the Reading Cir- 
cle. There are no extra fees. It is recommended that each shall read at least one volume in 
Pedagog_y. By reading three pages a day, five days in the week, one can read a volume of 
400 pages before the next annual meeting. Those who are teaching history, literature or any 
subject in the other departments will find it helpful to read the books" recommended by 
the Directors of those departments. The Directors will be glad to ab- - ' ,t ay inquiries or 
to give further information to any who desire it, in relation to books, u. t'; is of study, or 
other points of interest in their departments. 

The following are the various departments and the books recommended in each :— 

I. PEDAGOGY. 

George J. Mc Andrew, Director. 

The large number of books on pedagogy written and published during Ihe past two or three 
years is almost if not altogether unprecedented. While differing widely in many important 
aspects these books are too generally alike in this : — they treat the subject analytically, or if 
you please, in a didactic manner. They make pedagogy an abstract science, not a science 
which has its true basis for the most part in a knowledge of the soul of the living child. In- 
deed, in the method of its treatment, the science of pedagogy has advanced scarcely a step be- 
yond the dogmatism of a hundred years ago. As long ago as Goethe's time he says : "When 
a philosopher wishes to understand and describe anything living, he first seeks to drive the 
life out of it, and then when he holds the parts in his hand, alas,''all that is lacking is the life 
which he has just banished." 

This is just what has been done in the science of teaching; the child — the life of it, has been 
left out of consideration. This is all wrong. Pedagogy is a science of the concrete and deals 
with the living and developing child. It should be studied genetically. We put pedagogy on 
its true basis only when we make the child's powers, propensities, tendencies, emotions, and 
psychical states, the foundation of its principles. What field for this work can equal the 
schoolroom? Many teachers would be glad to study pedagogy in a pi-actical way, if they only 
knew how to observe children and how to classify and reduce to scientific form the knowledge 
of them which each day's work in the school-room can furnish. The best book ever written 
to aid teachers in making such observations is Preyer's "'The Senses and the Will," a transla- 
tion of Part I of the German work "The Soul of the Child," and this book is, accordingly 
recommended for your reading in Pedagogy. It is written in a simple and pleasing stjde, is as 
interesting as a novel, and presupposes no technical acquaintance with the subject of psychol- 
ogy. It contains a full account of how Prof. Preyer conducted a series of observations with 
his own child and how principles were deduced from these observations. 

Your committee also i-ecommends, to be read in connection with Preyer, '-The First Three 
Tears of Childhood," by Bernard Perez. The former is published by D. Appleton & Co., New 
York ; the latter by W. Swan Sonnenschein & Co. , London. 

II. HISTORY. 
Everett C. Willard, Director. 

The study of History, at once so important and interesting seems at the present time to be 
receiving more than ordinary attention. This is evidenced by the large number of recent pub- 
lications in this department. To recommend a course of reading for a body of teachers of 
such varied tastes and attainments, and at the same time make the year's work progressive, on 
the basis of courses recommended in previous years is not an easy task. The plan followed 
heretofore, by the directors of the History department, of first quickening the memory by 
reading a sketch of General History, and afterwards giving more minute attention to an epoch 
or nation commends itself heartily to my judgment. 

Under the head of General History, I would again recommend Fisher's Outlines of Universal 
History and Myer's Outlines of Ancient, Mediaeval, and Modern History. I would also mention 
in this connection. Epochs of Ancient and Modern History, published in twenty-eight volumes, 
at 11.00 per volume, by Chas, Scribner's Sons. They furnish an excellent outline of history and 
are the work of different men who are authorities in their respective fields, This work would 
be especially valuable for those members of the circle who are attempting a fuller course in 



General History. It seems to me that there is less familiarity with English History than with 
the history of any other important country of the past or present. I therefore heartily concur 
with the recommendations of last year in respect to English History, and would recouuuend 
the reading of one or more of the recent publications in this field. I mention as suitable books 
two that are most entertainingly written, viz : Montgomery's Leading^ Facts of Englinh ITistori/, 
Revised, price |1.12, published "by Gin n & Co., Boston, iuid Stone's Englisli History, price 85c., 
published by Thompson, Brown & Co , Boston. In addition to this work, if time permits, I 
would suggest reading in the field of English and American Constitutional History and Pol- 
itics. Raimie's Historical Outline of the English Constitution, for Beginners, price $1.00, 
published by Chas. Scribner's Sons, is recommended. 

In connection with the annual courses of historical lectures at the Old South Meeting-House, 
the directors of the Old South Studies in History and Politics are publishing, through D. C. 
Heath & Co., Boston, a series of leaflets at 5 cents a copy. A careful study of these leaflets is 
recommended. 

ni. LITERATURE. 

Sarah Marble, Director. 

Life of Henry Wadsicorth Longfelloio. Edited by Rev. Samuel Longfellow. 

That biography is autobiography is especially true of the work named. It is chiefly a col- 
lection of Longfellow's letters and of extracts from his journal. 

It is recommended in that the poems of Longfellow meet with a response in the hearts of 
the American people, as perhaps tho.se of no other author. It is and will remain the principal 
source from which authentic knowledge with regard to the poet will be derived. 

The cost of the work need not deter teachers from reading it, as it may be found in many of 
the public libraries. 

The following suggestions are offered for its reading. 

Let some if not all of the works of Longfellow be read as the occasion of their being written 
is met with in the biography. 

Let teachers who have little children under their charge, make such written extracts as shall 
contain facts adapted to the understanding of such children, the facts to be told to the children 
as opportunity offers. 

Let those teachers who present the poems of Longfellow as objects of study, refer their 
classes to the Life, itself. 

IV. LANGUAGE. 

Albert J. Manchester, Director. 

As the Rhode Island Teachers' Reading Circle is composed almost entirely of practical 
teachers, and as a large majoritj^ of the membership is employed in the common schools of our 
Commonwealth, we venture to recommend such language books as will prove useful helps in 
the hands of the piipiU, — provided, however, and always, that their lessons have been so assim- 
ilated by the teacher that the instruction is never imparted and the examinations are never 
conducted on what may be called a second-handed basis. Certainly, if a teacher desires and 
deserves success, he must be something more than a mere imitator. If he so relies that he 
leans upon second-handed power, he will certainly fail, as he ought to. Borrowed thunder 
usually stri'Kes the wrong way, and if the operator were the only injured partj', it were well. 
Let the teacher, then, from all available sources, seek and find all possible information, ponder 
upon it, digest it, assimilate it, and then, from his own strong, personal convictions, let him 
teach like himself. 

We most heartily recommend the following helps : — 

I. Practical Lessons in the use of English for Primary aehools, by Mary F. Hyde, Teacher 
of Composition in State Normal School, Albany, N. Y. 

II. Practical Lessons in the use of English for Grammar schools, by Miss Hyde. 

III. The English language, by Prof. J. M. D. Meiklejohn. 

The above books are published by D. C. Heath and Company, Boston. 

As a special favor to the Reading Circle of Rhode Island, an unusual reduction of 20 and 
10 per cent, from the introduction price is made ; so that the cost (postage paid by the pub- 
lishers) is :— Book I., 28 cents ; Book II., 44 cents ; Meiklejohn, $L04. 

The Hyde "Practical Lessons" are new, j97'acto«?, instructive; fitting one for the duties of 
every-day life, and at the same time, laying a good foundation for the future work of a more 
extended course of instruction. 

"Meiklejohn" was published last year, was recommended to the Circle by Prof. Bancroft, 
and has been introduced into a large number of New England city schools. It is worthy of 
being continued on our list. It is a condensed summary of the grammar, history, and litera- 
ture of the English Language. It is divided into four parts :— Part I , Grammar of the Eng- 
lish language. Part II., Composition, punctuation, paraphrasing, and prosody. Part III., 



The History of the English language. Part IV. , Outline of the history of English literature. 
With much pleasure, we also recommend the following : — 

I. Primary Lessons iu Language and Composition ; for primary schools. 

II. Introductory Lessons iu English Grammar; — for lower grammar classes. 

III. Advanced Lessons in English Grammar; — for higher grammar classes. (In prepara- 
tion.) 

These books are published by A. S. Barnes and Company, 111 and 113 William Street, New 
York. Price to the Circle, Book I.. 27 cents; Book XL, 36 cents; Book III., — cents. 

Their author is W. H. Maxwell, M. A., Associate Superintendent of Public Inslruction, 
Brooklyn, N. Y. 

These are certainly charming books ; the hints to teachers cannot fail to be as helpful as 
they are concise ; and we do not believe that any pupil who uses them will have a disposition 
to say, — "1 hate grammar." Indeed, Book I. is not a grammar at all, it is simply an introduc- 
tion to it ; it is a language book. It deals with such sentence forms and the proper use of such 
words as belong to a child's vocabulary. Each lesson is divided into two parts oral and 
written. 

Each lesson in Book II. consists of an inductive language exercise, grammar principles, 
and a copious, practical application of the principles taught. "Half the knowledge, with 
twice the power of applying it, is better than twice the knowledge, with half the power 6f 
application." ■ 

We would include in our list one more book which has just been published ;--Smit.h's Ele- 
ments of English; published b,y Van Antwerp, Bragg & Co., Cincinnati and New York; C. 
F. Stearns, N. E. Agent, 8 Hawley Street, Boston, Mass. Cost to Circle, 50 cents. 

This book is divided into six chapters, treating in order of "History of the English 
Language;" "Derivation;" "Prosody;" "The Sentence;" "Rhetorical Figures;" and 
"Elements of Criticism." 

Teachers will find in this volume valuable and interesting information which they have 
heretofore been compelled to collect for their pupils' use from various outside and often in- 
convenient sources. 

V. GEOGRAPHY. 
Elizabeth Hammett, Director. 

"Methods and Aids iu Geography," by Chas. F. King. Lee and Shepard, Boston. Net 
price, $1 60 ; by mail, $1.76. 

Keith Johnston's "Physical, Historical, Political, and Descriptive Geography." Edward 
Stanford, London. Net price (in Bo.ston,) $3.80. 

The book first named is a vigorous presentation of the capabilities of the "all-science" for 
discipline and for general culture. The topical method of study is advocated, and is illus- 
trated by model lessons which show a due regard for the practical needs and the limitations of 
the school-room. The "Aids" are inexhaustible. Home-made charts, scrap collections, news 
committees, references for . collateral readings, progressive maps, sand maps, illustrated com- 
positions, museums, and pictures are but a few of tfie devices suggested to awaken the healthy 
interest which will ensure profitable returns in intellectual growth. 

The chapters treating of North America and of modern commerce are especially compre- 
hensive. 

"The Descriptive Geography" contains an interesting account of the gradual development of 
geographical knowledge, illustrated by a series of little maps exhibiting the known world at 
twelve periods of its history. Then follows a most helpful chapter upon the phenomena of 
mathematical, physical, and political geography. The grand divisions are treated logically 
and in great detail. Recent discoveries and political changes up to date (Third edition, 1885) 
are noted, and the value of the book to a busy teacher is doubled by the copious index which 
renders accessible the vast amount of information stored within its pages. 

VI. SCIENCE. 
D. W. HoTT, Director. 

It is impossible to recommend any book which shall cover the whole field of Science. 
Neither can any person be expected, in one year, to study all the difl'erent branches classed 
as Natural Science and Physical Science. Moreover, reading a book about science is not 
studying science, iu the best sense. This can only be done by the study of natural objects. It 
may not be in accordance with the exact meaning of the name "Reading Circle" to insist upon 
something besides reading ; but the knowledge of science is of more importance than a literal 
interpretation of a name. 

If all the books recommended in this department last year have been studied, some know- 
ledge has been obtained of the principles and methods to be applied in Botany, Zoology, Min- 
eralogy, and Geology. What is now needed is a study of our own localities, "that we may 



6 

learn to see find appreciate the forms about us at home." The limited area, the geographical 
position, and the geological character of our State afford special facilities for the study of 
3ome branches of natural science, and we should avail ourselves of them. A catalogue of the 
•'Plants of Rhode Island," growing without cultivation, has recently been published It is 
hoped that within a year or two we shall have topographical maps of the State, far in advance 
of any which we now possess. 

We recommend, however, for the coming year, the study of a .single branch. Mineralogy. 
If this is properly pursued, it may keep the mind of the teacher active outside of the usual 
school routine, and prevent his being '•pros3^" It will surely react upon the school, and some 
pupil may be led to choose what may prove a pleasant recreation for life, and a shield against 
temptation. We select this branch for several reasons. Specimens of minerals are easily ac- 
cessible in this State ; the town of Cumberland has been called the 'miueral pocket of New 
England" No care and labor are required to preserve minerals, and they can never become 
offensive or deleterious to health. Some specimens are ornamental, both for the school-room 
and tlie home. A knowledge of the common minerals is essential if one would study the 
rocks of our State ; and present indications point to a great advance in lithology, and especially 
petrology, in the immediate future. 

The Board of Education has recently placed in the public libraries and high and grammar 
schools of this State, copies of the "Franklin Society Report on the Geology of Rhode Island," 
which contains a "Catalogue of Minerals found in Rhode Island." From this can be learned 
what minerals have heretofore been obtained in various parts of the State. Diligent search 
may add to the number of species and varieties, but more especially to the knowledge of locid- 
ities where certain minerals may be found. 

For the study of the minerals themselves, we recommend the use of Prof. W. O. Crosby's 
"Tables for the Determination of Common Minerals, chiefly by their Physical Properties, 
with Confirmatory Chemical Tests." Boston : J. Allen Ciosby, 1888. Second Edition. Net 
Price, $1.00. These tables are intended for the use of common schools and private students ; 
therefore, only about two hundred of the most common minerals are included, and little ap- 
paratus and chemical training are required.

THE RHODE ISLAND TEACHERS' READING CIRCLE. 



Every member of the Rhode Island Institute of Instruction is a member of the Reading Cir- 
cle. There are no extra fees. It is recommended that each shall read at least one volume in 
Pedagogy. By reading three pages a day, live days in the week, one can read a volume of 
400 pages before the next annual meeting. Those who are teaching history, literature or any 
subject in the otiier departments will find it helpful to read the books recommended by 
the Directors of those departments. The Directors will be glad to answer any inquiries or 
to give further information to any who desire it, iu relation to books, methods of study, or 
other points of interest in their departments. 

The following are the various departments and the books recommended in each: — 

I. PEDAGOGY. 
George J. McAndrew, Director. 

The large number of books on pedagogy written and published during the past two or three 
years is almost if not altogether unprecedented. While differing widely in many important 
aspects these books are too generally alike in this : — they treat the subject analytically, or if 
you please, in a didactic manner. They make pedagogy an abstract science, not a science 
which has its true basis for the most part in a knowledge of the soul of the living child. In- 
deed, in the method of its treatment, the science of pedagogy has advanced scarcely a step be- 
yond tbe dogmatism of a hundred years ago. As long ago as Goethe's time he says : "When 
a philosopher wishes to understand and describe anything living, he first seeks to drive the 
life out of it, and then when he holds the parts iu his hand, alas, all that is lacking is the life 
which he has just banished." 

This is just what has been done in the science of teaching; the child — the life of it, has been 
left out of consideration. This is all wrong. Pedagogy is a science of the concrete and deals 
with the living and developing child. It should be studied genetically. We put pedagogy on 
its true basis only w^hen we make the child's powers, propensities, tendencies, emotions, and 
psychical states, the foundation of its principles. What field for this work can equal the 
schoolroom? Many teachers would be glad to study pedagogy in a practical way, if they only 
knew how to observe children and how to classify and reduce to scientific form the knowledge 
of them which each day's work in the school-room can furnish. The best book ever written 
to aid teachers in making such observations is Preyer's "The Senses and the Will," a transla- 
tion of Part I of the German work "The Soul of the Child," and this book is, accordingly 
recommended for your reading in Pedagogy. It is written in a simple and pleasing style, is as 
interesting as a novel, and presupposes no technical acquaintance with the subject of psychol- 
ogy. It contains a full account of how Prof. Preyer conducted a series of observations with 
his own child and how principles were deduced from these observations. 

Your committee also recommends, to be read in connection with Preyer, '-The First Three 
Years of Childlwod," by Bernard Perez. The former is published by D. Appleton & Co., New 
York ; the latter by W. Swan Sonnenschein & Co. , London. 

II. HISTORY. 
Everett C. Willard, Director. 

The study of History, at once so impoi'tant and interesting seems at the present time to be 
receiving more than ordinary attention. This is evidenced by the large numl»er of recent pub- 
lications in this department. To recomnleud a course of reading for a body of teachers of 
such varied tastes and attainments, and at the same time make the year's work progressive, on 
the basis of coxirses recommended in previous years is not an easy task. The plan followed 
heretofore, by the directors of the History department, of first quickening the memory by 
reading a sketch of General History, and afterwards giving more minute attention to an epoch 
or nation commends itself heartily to my judgment. 

Under the head of General History, I would again recommend Fisher's Outlines of Universal 
History and Myer's Outlines of Ancient, Mediaeval, and Modern History. I would also mention 
in this connection, Epochs of Ancient and Modern Histoi^y, published in twenty-eight volumes, 
at $1.00 per volume, by Chas, Scribner's Sons. They furnish an excellent outline of history and 
are the work of different men who are authorities in their respective fields. This work would 
be especially valuable for those members of the circle who are attempting a fuller course iu 



General History. It seems to me that there is less familiarity with English History than with 
the history of any other important country of the past or present. 1 therefore heartily concur 
with the recommendations of last year in respect to English History, and would recommend 
the reading of one or more of the recent publications in this field. I mention as suitable books 
two that are most entertainingly written, viz : Montgomery's Leadirto Facts of Emjluh History, 
Revised, price $1.12, published by Giun & Co., Boston, and Stone's English History, price 85c., 
published by Thompson, Brown & Co , Boston. In addition to this work, if time permits, I 
would suggest reading in the field of English and American Constitutional History and Pol- 
itics. Raunie's Historical Outline of the English Constitution, for Beginners, price $1.00, 
published by Chas. Scribner's Sons, is recommended. 

In connection with the annual courses of historical lectures at the Old South Meeting-House, 
the directors of the Old South Studies in History and Politics are publishing, through D. C. 
Heath & Co. , Boston, a series of leaflets at 5 cents a copy. A careful study of these leaflets is 
recommended. 

III. LITERATURE. 

Sarah Marble, Director. 

Life of Henry WadsicortJi Longfelloio. Edited by Rev. Samuel Longfellow. 

That l)iography is autobiography is especially true of the work named. It is chieflj'' a col- 
lection of Longfellow's letters and of extracts from his journal. 

It is recommended in that the poems of Longfellow meet with a response in the hearts of 
the American people, as perhaps those of no other author. It is and will remain the principal 
source from which authentic knowledge with regard to the poet will be derived. 

The cost of the work need not deter teachers from reading it, as it may be found in many of 
the public libraries. 

The following suggestions are offered for its reading. 

Let some if not all of the works of Longfellow be read as the occasion of their being written 
is met with in the biography. 

Let teachers who have little children under their charge, make such written extracts as shall 
contain facts adapted to the understanding of such children, the facts to be told to the children 
as opportunity offers. 

Let those teachers who present the poems of Longfellow as objects of study, refer their 
classes to the Life, itself. 

IV. LANGUAGE. 

Albert J. Manchester, Director. 

As the Rhode Island Teachers' Reading Circle is composed almost entirely of practical 
teachers, and as a large majoritj^ of the membership is employed in the common schools of our 
Commonwealth, we venture lo recommend such language books as will prove useful helps in 
the hands of the pupils,— provided, however, and always, that their lessons have been so assim- 
ilated by the teacher that the instruction is never imparted and the examinations are never 
conducted on what may be called a second-handed basis. Certainly, if a teacher desires and 
deserves success, he must be something more than a mere imitator. If he so relies that he 
leans upon second-lianded power, he will certainly fail, as he ought to. Borrowed thunder 
usually stri'Kes the wrong way, and if the operator were the only injured party, it were well. 
Let the teacher, then, from all available sources, seek and find all possible information, ponder 
upon it, digest it, assimilate it, and then, from his own strong, personal convictions, let him 
teach like himself. 

We most heartily recommend the following helps : — 

I. Practical Lessons in the use of English for Primary schools, by Mary F. Hyde, Teacher 
of Composition in State Normal School, Albany, N. Y. 

II. Practical Lessons in the use of English for Grammar schools, by Miss Hyde. 

III. The English language, by Prof. J. M. D. Meiklejohn. 

The above books are pub]i.shed by D. C. Heath and Company, Boston. 

As a special favor to the Reading Circle of Rhode Island, an unusual reduction of 20 and 
10 per cent, from the introduction price is made ; so that the cost (postage paid by the pub- 
lishers) is :— Book I., 28 cents ; Book II., 44 cents ; Meiklejohn, $1.04. 

The Hyde "Practical Lessons" are new, pracfeai, instructive; fitting one for the duties of 
everyday life, and at the same time, laying a good foundation for the future work of a more 
extended course of instruction. 

"Meiklejohn" was published last year, was recommended to the Circle by Prof. Bancroft, 
and has been introduced into a large number of New England city schools. It is worthy of 
being continued on our list. It is a condensed summarj' of the grammar, history, and litera- 
ture of the English Language. It is divided into four parts :— Part I , Grammar of the Eng- 
lish language. Part II., Composition, punctuation, paraphrasing, and prosody. Part III., 



The History of the English language. Part IV. , Outline of the history of English literature. 
With much pleasure, we also recommend the followiug : — 

I. Primarj'' Lessons in Language and Composition ; for primary scliools. 

II. Introductory Lessons iii English Grammar;— for lower grammar classes. 

Ill Advanced Lessons in English Grammar; — for higher grammar classes. (In prepara- 
tion.) 

These books are published by A. S. Barnes and Company, 111 and 113 William Street, New 
York. Price to the Circle, Book I.. 27 cents; Book II., 36 cents; Book III., — cents. 

Their author is W. H. Maxwell, M. A., Associate Superintendent of Public Instruction, 
Brooklyn, N. Y. 

These are certainly charming books ; the hints to teachers cannot fail to be as helpful as 
they are concise ; and we do not believe that any pupil who uses them will have a disposition 
to say, — "I hate grammar." Indeed, Book I. is not a grammar at all, it is simply an introduc- 
tion to it ; it is a language book. It deals with such sentence forms and the proper use of such 
words as belong to a child's vocabulary. Each lesson is divided into two parts ai'al and 
written. 

Each lesson in Book II. consists of an inductive language exercise, grammar principles, 
and a copious, practical application of the principles taught. "Half the knowledge, with 
twice the power of applying it, is better than twice the knowledge, with half the power of 
application." 

We would include in our list one more book which has just been published : — Smith's Ele- 
ments of English; published by Van Antwerp, Bragg & Co., Cincinnati and New York; C. 
F. Stearns, N. E. Agent, H Hawley Street, Boston, Mass. Cost to Circle, 50 cents. 

This book is divided into six chapters, treating in order of "History of the English 
Language;" "Derivation;" "Prosody;" "The Sentence;" "Pihetorical Figures;" and 
"Elements of Criticism." 

Teachers will find in this volume valuable and interesting information which they have 
heretofore been compelled to collect for their pupils' use from various outside and often in- 
convenient sources. 

V. GEOGRAPHY. 
Elizabeth Hammett, Director. 

"Methods and Aids in Geography," by Chas. F. King. Lee and Shepard, Boston. Net 
price, fl 60 ; by mail, $1.76. 

Keith Johnston's "Physical, Historical, Political, and Descriptive Geography." Edward 
Stanford, London. Net price (in Boston,) $3.80. 

The book first named is a vigorous presentation of the capabilities of the "all-science" for 
discipline and for general culture. The topical method of study is advocated, and is illus- 
trated by model lessons which show a due regard for the practical needs and the limitations of 
the school-room. The "Aids" are inexhaustible. Home-made charts, scrap collections, news 
committees, references for collateral readings, progressive maps, sand maps, illustrated com- 
positions, museums, and pictures are but a few of the devices suggested to awaken the healthy 
interest which will ensure profitable returns in intellectual growth. 

The chapters treating of North America and of modern commerce are especially compre- 
hensive. 

"The Descriptive Geography" contains an interesting account of the gradual development of 
geographical knowledge, illustrated by a series of little maps exhibiting the known world at 
twelve periods of its history. Then follows a most helpful chapter upon the phenomena of 
mathematical, physical, and political geographj^ The grand divisions are treated logically 
and in great detail. Recent discoveries and political changes up to date (Third edition, 1885) 
are noted, and the value of the book to a busy teacher is doubled by the copious index which 
renders accessible the vast amount of information stored within its pages. 

VI. SCIENCE. 
D. W. HoTT, Director. 

It is impossible to recommend any book which shall cover the whole field of Science. 
Neither can any person be expected, in one year, to study all the difl'erent branches classed 
as Natural Science and Physical Science. Moreover, reading a book about science is not 
studying science, in the best sense. This can onlj' be done by the study of natural objects. It 
may not be in accordance with the exact meaning of the name "Reading Circle" to insist upon 
something besides reading ; but the knowledge of science is of more importance than a literal 
interpretation of a name. 

If all the books recommended in this department last year have been studied, some know- 
ledge has been obtained of the principles and methods to be applied in Botany, Zoology, Min- 
eralogy, and Geology. What is now needed is a study of our own localities, "that we may 



learn to see and appreciate the forms about us at home." The limited area, the geogi-aphical 
position, and the geological character of our State afford special facilities for the study of 
some branches of natural science, and we should avail ourselves of them. A catalogue of the 
•'Plants of Rhode Island," growing Avithout cultivation, has recently been published It is 
hoped that within a year or two we shall have topographical maps of the State, far in advance 
of any which we now possess. 

We recommend, however, for the coming year, the stud}' of a single branch. Mineralogy. 
If this is properly pursued, it may keep the mind of the teacher active outside of the u.sual 
school routine, and prevent his being 'prosy." It will .surely re-act upon the school, and some 
pupil ma}' he led to choose what maj^ prove a pleasant recreation for life, and a shield against 
temptation We select this branch for several reasons. Specimens of minerals are easily ac- 
cessible in this State ; the town of Ckimberhmd has been called the '"mineral pocket of New 
England." No care and labor are required to preserve minerals, and they can never become 
offensive or deleterious to health. Some specimens are ornamental, both for the school-room 
and the home. A knowledge of the common minerals is es.sential if one would study the 
rocks of our State ; and present indications point to a great advance in lithology, and especially 
petrology, in the immediate future. 

The Board of Education has recently placed in the public libraries and high and grammar 
schools of this State, copies of the "Franklin Society Report on the Geology of Rhode Island." 
which contains a "Catalogue of Minerals found in Rhode Island." From this can be learned 
what minerals have heretofore been obtained in various parts of the State. Diligent search 
may add to the number of species and varieties, but more especially to the knowledge of local- 
ities where certain minerals may be found. 

For the study of the minerals themselves, we recommend the use of Prof. W. O. Crosby's 
"Tables for the Determination of Common Minerals, chiefly by their Physical Properties, 
with Confirmatory Chemical Tests." Boston : J. Allen Crosby, 1888. Second Edition. Net 
Price, $1.00. These tables are intended for the use of common schools and private students ; 
therefore, onl}' about two hundred of the most common minerals are included, and little ap- 
paratus and chemical training are required.

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON NECROLOGY* 

OCTOBER 25, 1902. 



Sarah J. Booth died at the Whitmarsli Hospital, Providence, July ii, 1902. She 
was the daughter of the late Wright Booth of Crompton, was borri in that village, 
and lived there all her life. She early showed a special aptitude for teaching and, 
having concluded her studies in the Valley, she entered the State Normal School and 
graduated from there in 1872. She taught at Crompton, East Greenwich, and Centre- 
ville, and at each place left upon her pupils the imprint of her strong character. 

In the home, in the church, and in the social circle she was pre-eminently the 
wise counselor and trusted friend. She was for many years a valued member of St. 
Philip's Episcopal Church and of many of the church societies. 

Miss Booth had been out of health for several years, but with her accustomed 
fortitude and devotion to duty she retained her position as teacher and taught through 
the term which closed but a few days before her death. 

Margaret R. Cronin died at her home in East Providence, Aug. 15, 1902. Miss 
Cronin was at one time a member of the Rhode Island Normal School. Until shortly 
before her death she taught in the East Providence schools. 

General Thomas J. Morgan, formerly of this city and principal of the Rhode 
Island Normal School for several years, died at his home in Yonkers, N. Y., July 13, 
1902, at the age of sixty-two. 

He was born in Franklin, Ind., and was attending college when the Civil War 
broke out. He immediately enlisted and for four years served his country honorably 
and faithfully. He was appointed first lieutenant of the Seventieth Indiana Regiment 
and was afterwards breveted brigadier general of volunteers. At the close of the 
war he entered Rochester Theological Seminary and graduated in 1868. After 
preaching a short time be became professor of homiletics and church history at the 
Baptist Theological Seminary in Chicago. While holding this position he received 
from Chicago University the degree of doctor of divinity. 

Subsequently he was called to the principalships of normal schools and his longest 
period of work in this direction was at the Rhode Island Normal. 

In 1889 President Harrison appointed him Commissioner of Indian Affairs. He 
held this position four years, performing the duties of his high office with marked 
ability and success. 

For ten years previous to his death he was secretary of the Baptist Home 
Mission Society. 

He was editor of the Home Mission Monthly and has written several books, 
chiefly of an educational character. 

One who knew Dr. Morgan intimately and v/ell has said of him : 

"He was not magnetic but he carried the atmosphere of sincerity and genuineness. 
He always inspired you as knowing his business and being master of it. He could 
meet a critical situation with patience, tact, and delicacy, and avoided friction and 
controversy wherever it was possible without sacrifice of truth, honesty, and manhood. 

"Take him all in all, he was a broad-visioned and high-minded Christian gentle- 
man, who wore his life out in devoted service to God and humanitj-." 



Joseph A. Tillinghast. one of the originators of the Rhode Island Institute, was 
born Nov. 4, 1859. in Tolland. Conn. His father, Rev. Joseph A. Tillinghast, was a 
well-known Baptist clerg3'man. The subject of this sketch was educated in the public 
schools and at Eastman's Business College, Poughkeepsie, N. Y. By himself he 
pursued the studies of German, Agriculture, and other subjects. He taught school 
for several years in West Greenwich and Coventry. He afterwards 
became interested in agriculture and devoted his whole time to its improvement in 
this state. In recognition of his ability he was elected Master of Kent County Pomona 
Grange. His thorough knowledge of all farm operations, together with his 
recognized executive ability, led to his appointment to the Experiment Station 
at Kingston. He held this position for nearly five years and was actively employed 
nearly up to the time of his death. 

He was considered by his associates "as a man of exceptional ability and sound 
judgment, not only vvithin the limits of his own State, but in the councils of the 
National Grange. As a citizen of his town and State, ardent patriotism and true devo- 
tion to Christian principles actuated his every motive. In the service of the State, in 
his connection with college and station, his devotion to duty was ideal and he was 
loved and respected by all who came within the sphere of his influence." 

Henry A. Wood, an original member of the Rhode Island Institute, died in 
Providence, Aug. 12, 1902, in his sixty-fifth year. In early life he taught school in 
Apponaug and River Point, remaining in the latter place several years. He was very 
successful as a teacher and commanded the respect and esteem of all with whom he 
associated. He afterwards removed to Providence to engage in business, and lived 
there until his death. 

Mr. Wood had a strong character. He was earnest, honest, and sincere. His 
education was acquired only by hard and persistent effort. When most boys of his 
age were at school he was earning his own living in the village factory. Anxious to 
improve himself, eager to get an education, he resolved to save something each week 
froni his small earnings to accomplish this purpose. By rigid self-denial he was 
enabled to do this, first in the district school, and afterwards at Greenwich Academy. 
He fitted himself for a teacher and was a faithful, conscientious, and successful 
instr;ictor. 

Correction in report of Committee on Necrology 1901—02: Martha B. Teel died Nov. 1, 1900. 



REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON RESOLUTIONS . 

OCTOBER 25, 1902, 



"We believe that the common schools are the one great agency upon which the 
State is to rely for a barrier against the setting up of class distinctions, which have 
no place on American soil. In them every child must be given an equal chance to 
acquire such education as will give him individuality and make him a thoughtful and 
responsible factor in the development of social and State affairs. 

"We urge, therefore, the thorough enforcement of the Compulsory Education law 
and the enactment and enforcement of all legislation necessary to secure for the 
children of our State a common school education of the highest type. 



"We believe that it is both just and possible to keep the schools in every township 
of the State in the forefront and in all respects up to a high and uniform standard 
of excellence and efficiency. 

"The consolidation of weaker districts in the country and provision for free 
transportation of the pupils to and from school tend to this end. 

"We urge, therefore, the enactment of legislation abolishing the district system, 
and the establishing of the town system throughout the State. 

"We also urge legislation providing a uniform plan for school supervision 
throughout the S'tate and the necessary appropriation therefor. 

Deploring the too great prevalence of illiteracy and crime in some sections of our 
State we regard true education as inseparable from morality, and believe the public 
school the recognized agency to make this relation binding. We urge, therefore, by 
every consideration of good public policy and healthful social conditions, the absolute 
necessity for a higher standard of excellence in the common schools of our State. 
Especially do we urge public school authorities, teachers, and parents to give strict 
attention to moral instruction in our public schools as the true foundation of character 
and citizenship. 

"We believe in the unity and inter-dependence of the interests of the university, 
the secondary schools, and the primary schools. We therefore commend all efforts 
to secure such practical co-operation as may be possible in the working out of the 
problems of education. 

"Resolved, That we recommend the publication of the address by Prof. Walter 
Ballou Jacobs on 'Educational Progress' as a part of the manual of the Institute 
for the ensuing year. 

"Resolved, That we extend our most hearty sympathy to Commissioner Thomas 
B. Stockwell in his serious and protracted illness. We congratulate him upon signs 
of returning strength and hope for his speedy restoration to health and the great 
and important labors of his office. 

"Resolved, That we congratulate the Committee on Legislation upon the passage 
of the compulsory Education law. 

"Resolved, That the thanks of this Association are due, and are hereby extended, 
to President Herbert W. Lull and other officers for their untiring and efficient services, 
to the press of Providence for full and impartial reports of the meetings, to the 
speakers and all who have contributed to the success of the fifty-eighth meeting of 
the Rhode Island Institute of Instruction." 



REPORT ON EDUCATIONAL PROGRESS. 

OCTOBER 23, 1902. 
PROFESSOR WALTER BALLOU JACOBS. 



The past year has been a red-letter year in the history of education, both at home 
and abroad. In Germany the doors of the University have been opened to students 
of a wider diversity of preparation than ever before. The old gymnasium, the historic 
school of Germany and the stronghold of the classics, has raised the study of the 
English language from the position of an elective, to be taken out of regular school 



hours, to that of an integral part of the course, allowing it to take the place of Greek ; 
thus placing Greek and English on the same relative footing as Greek and German 
are in our own schools. 

In France, after stormy debate, the whole system of secondary education has been 
reorganized from top to bottom. In primary education the government has shown a 
strong hand, and in the presence oi mobs and threatened rebellion has closed the 
clerical schools which refused to submit to its regulations. Henceforth all schools in 
France, whether clerical or lay, must submit to the civil authorities. 

England, worn out by the South African War, threatened with the loss of her 
markets through the competition of Germany, invaded by American capital, almost in 
despair, and surely in shame, is seeking relief in the reorganization of her education. 
She is still in the midst of a doubtful contest, her hands tied by religious contro- 
versies. Never was that old talmud saying of R. Jehuda Hanassi more true than 
it is today: — 

"It is the breath of school children that sustains society." 

Our own country during the past year, 1 believe it is fair to say, has reached its 
majority in matters of education, has become twenty-one years of age. No longer 
does it, or will it, imitate other nations in a childish way. It has entered upon an 
earnest and persistent activity to solve its own problems ; and as it has taken its 
place among the great powers of the civilized world in war, in statesmanship, in 
industry, and in commerce; so also in education. 

In elementary education the attempt made in the last decade to better prepare 
the child to enfer a life more complex and different in a thousand ways from the life 
of our fathers, has resulted in the introduction of many new studies. As one has said, 
this has brought about "a stuffed condition of the course of study which occasions 
much uneasiness and distress." Not only the child but also the taxpayer is dyspeptic, 
and both are making wry faces at the teacher. It is plain that there is more food on the 
educational table than the child can digest. .Some think that this condition can be 
relieved by returning to the old condition — perhaps the little red schoolhouse and 
the days when pupils brought their own fuel to heat the schoolhouse — happy days; 
but the more thoughtful see that the problem is far more intricate, and that much 
of the new must be retained even at the expense of the old. We have, I believe, 
entered upon an era of adjustment and solidification. We shall not in the future be so 
prone to try a new experiment every six months or to change the slant of our pen- 
manship three times in as many years. 

In Chicago and in Providence both, during the past year, an attempt was made 
to economize by doing away with the kindergarten. I congratulate the kindergarten 
teachers and the friends of kindergartens on the royal way in which the public have 
risen to their support. They have made themselves heard in no mistakable tones of 
voice. Twice as many children will be cared for in the kindergartens of Chicago 
this year as last year. 

The vexed problem of education in our Southern States is assuming a much more 
satisfactory form than it ever has before. The newly formed Southern Education 
Board has been vigorously arousing an interest in those forms of education "which 
look toward thrift, industry, and usefulness" and the General Education Board is 
supplied already with a fund of more than a million dollars to advance these plans 
in a practical way. The ideas which have been worked out at Hampton, and by 
Booker Washington at Tuskeegee, are thoroughly permeating the South. These plans 
are to be carried out by Southern men and the focus of attention is to be the public 
schools. We must remember that the South representing 2570 of the population of 
our country has received only 3% of the benefactions which wealth has contributed 



to education. After years of the struggle in several of the states one third of the 
entire population over ten years of age cannot read and write. 

As to illiteracy in our own little State of Rhode Island, we must remember that 
despite the hard battle which is being fought we have little cause to plume ourselves. 
According to the reports of the last census, there are more people in Rhode Island 
who cannot read and write, for every hundred of the population than there are in 
any other New England state, or than there are in New York or New Jersey or 
Pennsylvania, or indeed than there are in any state north of Maryland. You say 
this is due to our foreign population; but there is more illiteracy among our native 
white population than there is in the states immediately surrounding us; in New 
Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York or New Jersey. And in our 
own capital city of Rhode Island, under the shadow of our marble-domed capitol, 
there is a larger percentage of illiteracy than there is in Boston or Worcester or 
Hartford, New York, Philadelphia, Buffalo, Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Louis, Denver, 
Salt Lake City, or San Francisco. We rely upon two special agencies to deliver us 
from this evil, the truant office and the evening school. God speed them both ! 

For the past ten years on the average only about three quarters of the pupils 
enrolled in the graded schools of the state have been in attendance. This is demoral- 
izing to the school and education becomes a veritable farce for a considerable number 
of our children. Part of this is due to the negligence and thoughtlessness of parents. 
Part has been due tO' the eighty day attendance clause in the Rhode Island law by 
which pupils of a certain age who had attended eighty days might work the remainder 
of the year. Last April, through the efforts of a committee appointed by this Institute, 
of which Mr. Allen P. Keith of Pascoag was chairman, a law was passed by the 
general assembly doing away with this clause and fixing the age of compulsory full 
attendance at 13 years. Henceforth every child "who has completed seven years of 
life and has not completed thirteen years of life" must regularly attend school for the 
full year unless he has completed the grammar school course or is excused for 
other good reasons. 

Our gratitude and the gratitude of the good citizens of the state of Rhode Island 
is due to Mr. Keith and his excellent committee, and to the General Assembly for this 
important legislation. Ought we not as a body of teachers to endeavor still further 
to arouse the public to a realization of the evils of irregular attendance? It demoral- 
izes the school, but worse than that it demoralizes the pupil. It teaches him wanton 
waste and extravagance. What the state offers freely but at an enormous expense, 
parent and pupil treat with neglect, until the prudence and economy of the state 
become rank extravagance. In our graded schools only 70% of the number enrolled 
are in attendance and in the ungraded schools only 57%. This means an enormous 
needless waste in the equipment and furnishing of our schools. 

The events of the past year give us good reason to believe that in the future 
more than ever the colleges will control the secondary schools not through a system 
of examinations but rather through a system of accrediting schools. Such a system 
of sichool examination rather than pupil examination has for a long time been in 
operation notably in the University of Michigan and in the University 
of California. During the past year most of the colleges in New England 
which admit on certificate have united for the more successful adminis- 
tration of such a plan, and in the Western States a "Coinmission on 
Accredited Schools" has been established holding its first annual meeting last March. 
Such a relation between the colleges and the lower schools is of the greatest moment 
to us all, from the college professor to the kindergartener. It means a recognition of 
the dignity of the teacher in all the grades of instruction. It means that measure of 



8 

freedom for each and every teacher which is necessary to his highest development. 
It means through the whole system breadth and confidence rather than narrowness 
and distrust ; for the attitude of the college to the school below it is very sure to 
exert a marked influence upon the relation which shall exist between High School 
artd Grammar School, between Grammar School and Primary School, and between 
the schools and their administrative heads. In our own state the attitude of Brown 
University towards the schools of the state has always been one of confidence and 
co-operation. The greatly increased financial resources which have come to the 
University during the past two years and the cordial attitude of the administration 
towards the schools of the state promises much for the advancement of education 
in Rhode Island. 

Of this active co-operation of the university and State and city, the gates at the 
crest of College Hill are a symbol. He who passes in and he who passes out, passes 
beneath the seal of the University set in iron over the entrance ; but upon the pillars 
which support this on either hand are the seals of the State of Rhode Island and of 
the City of Providence. Thus is symbolized the mutual support and mutual interests 
which bind together University, state and city. 

The most startling event in the higher education has been the announcement of 
Harvard University that it will give the degree of A. B. in three years instead of four, 
followed by the proposition of Columbia to give the degree in two years. To a 
superficial observation it might seem as if our great universities were falling over 
each other in a bid for students, and were selling their degree almost as bogus medical 
colleges do diplomas, but to the more careful observer it is plain that this act of 
Harvard is only a public announcement of a policy which has long been in active 
operation, not only at Harvard but at other leading universities. In this policy our 
own University has taken its place. To secure the A. B. degree two qualifications 
have been required, first, a time element of four years, and second the accomplishment 
of a certain amount of successful work. The new policy transfers the emphasis from 
the time element to the amount of work element. The policy announced from Brown 
University in no sense involves a lowering of standard of scholarship. In fact the 
University has during the year distinctly raised its requirements for admission by 
demanding of all students preparation equivalent to the best heretofore required. 

The year has witnessed several events of pomp and ceremony : the bicentennial 
of Yale, the 25th anniversary of Johns Hopkins, the centennial of West Point, 
and the inauguration of several presidents of Universities, notably that of President 
Butler at Columbia. 

Two new colleges have been opened in New England, which seemed already 
overflowing with institutions of that grade, Simmons College for Women in Boston 
and the Collegiate Department of Clark University at Worcester. Neither of these 
has been organized along traditional lines. The establishing of the Carnegie Institution 
in Washington, to foster and encourage research, plainly mSrks the beginning of a 
new era in the history of higher education in this country. 

The great problem of the year which our public schools have had to meet is the 
financial problem. The work of education is an altruistic one. It is what this 
generation is willing to do for the next. Natural selfishness is its enemy and draws 
tight the purse string. The missionary spirit is the true friend of education and 
pours out its financial support lavishly. It has been said that the teacher's profession 
is the poorest paid but the highest rewarded of all professions. We trust the political 
fathers of education in our state will not ask the teachers of the state to offer these 
certificates of reward in payment of coal bills or take the bread from the children 
to waste it in needless expense ; and it behooves us too as stewards of the children's 
bread to give a faithful account of our stewardship. 



We need another Fichte to preach national safety through education, another 
Horace Mann, another Henry Barnard to plead the cause of the coming generations. 

To-day our dangers are from within rather than from without. Trusts, labor 
unions, combinations on every hand threaten the disruption of our social system. The 
very complexity and delicacy of its organization makes it sure of destruction unless 
its element, the individual is not only intellectually but morally true. Illiteracy in 
the present age is not our greatest danger. The tramp and the hobo for the most part 
read the yellow journals. The shrewd criminal too often has had his shrewdness 
and cunning increased by his schooling. The schools have a greater task than to 
teach the three R's. But to teach righteousness, sympathetic appreciation of the rights 
and needs of our neighbor, ability and willingness to fill one's place in the social 
whole without malice or envy, and without tyranny, this is the great 
problem which the school of today must solve. This is the product which our schools 
must produce and for which wise taxpayers will gladly pay.

RESOLUTIONS 

ADOPTED OCTOBER 28, 1922 



Resolved : First, That this association commends and thanks the four busy men of 
affairs who, with the Commissioner of Education, gave their time, ability, and experience 



to the study of the needs of the public schools and who submitted to the General Assembly 
a report on which was based the new laws of 1922. 

Second, As the chief business of the public schools is "to support the democracy that 
supports the schools," we welcome these new laws relating to education and pledge our- 
selves to a faithful compliance with them. We commend the action of the General 
Assembly in enacting into law the Education Act of the Special Commission to Survey 
School Finance and Administration; the increase in the state's annual appropriation by 
more than 125 per cent; the definite requirement for a minimum municipal three-mill 
tax ; the provision for applying the income of the permanent school fund as an emergency 
appropriaton ; the increase in the teachers' minimum salary ; the measures to promote uni- 
form accounting and to restrict extravagance and waste of school money ; and the various 
provisions whereby the definitions of legal rights and duties are made explicit and whereby 
the enforcement of the school laws in all parts of the State is made more certain. All 
these suggest the beginning of a new advance in the Rhode Island school system. 

Third, That in accordance with these new laws relating to "the principles of popular 
and representative government" we welcome the additional legal responsibility for 
instructing our pupils in the Constitution and history of Rhode Island and the Constitu- 
tion and government of the United States. We believe that such instruction is essential 
for intelligent citizenship in a democracy. 

Fourth, That in consideration of the shortage of teachers in the State, and the fact 
that more than one hundred of applicants as prospective teachers were denied admission 
to the school on account of the lack of accommodations, The Rhode Island Institute of 
Instruction instructs its committee on legislation to use every effort possible to secure an 
appropriation for a new building for the Rhode Island College of Education. 

Fifth, "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he." We teachers should create a peace- 
thinking citizenry. To this end we must take advantage of our daily work in history, 
geography, and literature as well as of the special occasions for which the Commissioner 
of Education must prepare programs. We must teach those facts about other nations 
that make for kinship. 

Sixth, That the commendation of this Institute is hereby extended to the State Board 
of Education fof its action in providing for the higher professional recognition of the 
teacher through certification. 

Seventh, That the Institute thanks all those who in the preparation and presentation 
of the program and in all other duties pertaining to this Institute have made the meetings 
of 1922 successful and helpful to the cause of public education in Rhode Island. 



REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON EDUCATIONAL PROGRESS 

OCTOBER 28, 1922 



The year 1922 is one of the most wonderful in Rhode Island educational history. It 
is not alone that a traveller from New Zealand has stood upon Weybosset bridge, to para- 
phrase the famous remark of Macaulay, and visited Rhode Island College of Education, 
but that the visitor was directed on his way thither by the Boston school authorities. 
Surely an old order has passed away when a resident of the Hub of the Universe has 
become conscious of a world beyond his own narrow circle and has suggested the pos- 
sibility of there being something worthy of seeing in the Narragansett Bay country. It 
is true, nevertheless, that Rhode Island College of Education has never so much as at the 
present time held the esteem of Rhode Island teachers, and has never attracted so much 



10 

attention from the world of education beyond. Over 700 visitors from outside Rhode 
Island visited the College during the last school year, to study first hand the splendid 
demonstrations of the teaching art and the significant experiments being conducted in the 
Henry Barnard School. 

There have been other notable years in Rhode Island school history. In 1640 Rhode 
Island established the first American public school. In 1800 the Rhode Island General 
Assembly enacted the first state-wide mandatory free public school law. The city system of 
free schools in Providence is the oldest free school system in America. In 1838 the honor of 
electing the first American superintendent of public schools fell to a Rhode Island school 
committee. In 1843 the Rhode Island General Assembly ordered the first survey of an 
American state public school system. In 1844 Rhode Island enacted the first child labor 
and compulsory attendance law. In 1922 the General Assembly enacted a new general 
education law that contains provisions vastly significant for the improvement of public 
schools, and some provisions that mark progress in educational administration nowhere 
equalled. 

There have been several revisions of Rhode Island school law. The Barnard law of 
1845 was in part a revision and codification of existing law, with the introduction of a 
systematic organization, and the outlines of a general plan along which public education 
might be developed. It has been fortunate for Rhode Island that Barnard builded as he 
did upon comprehensive foundations and that he had at least the imagination, if not indeed 
the clear vision, that would make his general plan satisfactory for three quarters of a 
century. In 1851 there was another revision, in which the hand of that master craftsman 
in legal literature, Elisha R. Potter, wielded a pen which wrote into statutory language 
the masterful educational conception of the great schoolman. The General Statutes have 
been revised many times since 1851; the eminent lawyers who have served upon the com- 
missions appointed to conduct revisions have altered the arrangement of detail, but have 
not meddled with language or ventured to deviate from principle. The act of 1922 is 
most sweeping in its changes, most emphatic in the force which it has put into and behind 
the statutes, and yet the general plan is the same. Another group of master craftsmen 
have worked upon the old structure^ — they have strengthened it here, they have straightened 
out a timber there that had become warped through overstrain, they have introduced a 
brace here and there, they have added something for symmetry and something to round 
out a place where the detail was incomplete, and still our schools go on much better than 
ever before, and without the sign of revolution that so frequently mars or obstructs 
genuine educational progress. 

The outstanding features of the new law are these : 

1. The income of the permanent school fund, amounting to $12,000 annually,- here- 
tofore covered into the general treasury to offset the annual appropriation for schools, is 
appropriated annually as an emergency fund to be apportioned by the Commissioner and 
the State Board of Education. This appropriation replaces the annual appropriation for 
deficient schools, amounting to $5000; the new apportionment is not restricted as was the 
older appropriation, and the money becomes available for apportionment to towns for any 
legitimate purpose. 

2. For violation of, or neglect to comply with, school law on the part of any school 
officer or school committee, the State Board is authorized to stop payment of state assist- 
ance to towns until the conduct complained of is remedied, and any order entered in 
the premises by the Board has been complied with. This is one of the most comprehen- 
sive amendments ever made to the school law, because it establishes a definite and at the 
same time an indeterminate penalty applicable to every provision of the statutes and the 



11 

common law of schools. While it has been true that very many of our school laws are 
mandatory in form, there has sometimes been a disposition to treat even mandatory stat- 
utes as non-enforceable for want of a penalty. The new law provides a penalty. For the 
first time in the more than half a century of its existence, the State Board is in a position 
to make effective its authority to supervise and to control the public school system, and to 
enforce the rules and regulations that it is empowered to adopt to supplement the statutes. 
The Board itself may not avoid responsibility under the new statute; it is required to 
report to the General Assembly every infraction of the law which shall be brought to its 
attention, with a record of its action thereon. 

3. For purposes of the compulsory attendance law the approval of private schools 
and private education has been transferred from town school committees to the State 
Board of Education. Private schools are required to keep records of the same character 
and in similar form to records kept in public schools, and to make similar reports. This 
provision is an extension of a similar provision in effect for private secondary schools for 
nearly IS years. Under the new law the Board will follow the policy already practiced 
with reference to secondary schools, and through general rules and regulations establish a 
uniform basis for inspection and approval. The power to inspect is not new; it has been 
in the laws of Rhode Island for more than 30 years. The advantages to public education, 
using the term in the liberal sense of the education of all the people, are patent, and 
scarcely suggest discussion. The advantages to private education will include a single 
standard for approval that will replace the diversified standard under local approval, and 
an irrefutable answer to criticism or innuendo, that is, that approval has followed fair 
and impartial inspection, and certifies maintenance of satisfactory provision in the private 
schools for education of the children sent to them. It is true that there has been a dis- 
position on the part of politicians to criticise this particular feature of the new law, but 
the criticism has not been intelligent or even coherent. The same politicians who at the 
present time are appealing for a reversion to local inspection and approval were willing to 
accept state supervision in exchange for a surrender of the requirement that English shall 
continue to be the language in which the Common branches are taught, to the end that every 
child preparing for citizenship in Rhode Island may know the common language. On 
this particular issue there Can be only one opinion held by patriotic Americans. The issue 
joined in the General Assembly on the Education bill involved the teaching of English. 
The survey commission met the issue squarely. As a matter of fact, private schools have 
nothing to fear from impartial and just inspection. We quote the exact language used by 
Rt. Rev. Bishop McDevitt of Harrisburg in a recent discussion of the entire subject. He 
said, "No harm will come to our Catholic school system from state supervision, if the 
secular authorities are fair, just, and impartial." The Rhode Island State Board of Edu- 
cation exemplifies all three qualities to an unusual degree. The spirit of Roger Williams 
and the broad foundations of religious toleration in Rhode Island will not permit other 
than fair, just, and impartial inspection and approval. The people of Rhode Island are 
fair, just, and impartial in their attitude, and the good reputation of Rhode Island never 
has been questioned in this particular. The people of Rhode Island know how to deal 
with public officers who exercise their official functions in ways that are not fair, just, 
and impartial. So far as the issue concerns language, there can be no lingering doubt 
that the vast majority of the race to which an appeal has been directed is keen to the 
necessity of teaching their children English. It is to be regretted that the clamor of a 
few has been mistaken for an expression of the views of the majority. 

4. The State Board of Education may conduct surveys of the public schools of any 
town, or upon the request of a school committee is required to conduct a survey. In either 



instance a specific report must be made to the General Assembly. A school committee 
that finds it impossible from state and local school money to conduct schools of a reason- 
able standard may request the State Board to take over the schools for a year. The two 
provisions indicate possibilities for improvement of schools under circumstances that 
hitherto have suggested almost insurmountable difficulties. It is not anticipated that the 
Board will be called upon to take over the control of schools in many instances. The 
advantages of temporary state administration, and more particularly of comprehensive 
surveys, would lie in the collection of data, in view of which remedial legislation may be 
drafted. No one questions seriously to-day the responsibility of the state for providing 
means whereby children everywhere may be educated for citizenship. This responsibility 
may not be avoided by imposing the responsibility upon a municipal agency. The inevi- 
table results of a policy of evasion lie both in inequality in the distribution of the burden 
of supporting public education and in inequality in the provision of opportunities for edu- 
cation. The new legislation indicates a disposition on the part of the State to restore an 
equitable balance betwixt state and town. The deficiency appropriaion of the past decade 
has been merely palliative; the State has now faced the problem squarely. 

5. The increase in the major annual appropriation of 125 per cent for the year of 
1922, and further annual increase depending upon average attendance, is another indication 
of a keener sense of state responsibility. It is true that a much larger increase was justi- 
fied by the findings of the survey commission, but the advance is significant. For the 
first time in the history of Rhode Island public schools the law has established a definite 
minimum town tax for school support, and to insure against relapse of municipal effort no 
town is permitted, in view of increased state support, to reduce town appropriations below 
the average for the three years of 1919, 1920, and 1921. The three mill minimum school 
tax has been exceeded by most towns for several years ; it will require larger appropria- 
tions in a few instances. The minimum tax is a progressive measure in the sense that the 
amount of the tax will increase automatically with increased valuations. 

6. From the point of view of administration, the uniform system of accounting to be 
introduced under the provisions of the law that require the keeping of records in books 
and on forms prescribed by the Commissioner, with the supplementary provision for 
auditing accounts by the Commissioner, is scarcely more important than the provision 
that establishes a new basis for financial relations betwixt school committee and town 
through the requirement that a budget shall be prepared and presented annually on forms 
prescribed by the Commissioner. The budget unquestionably will strengthen the position 
of the school committee in the annual negotiations through which the amounts of appro- 
priations for schools are adjudged. Whether the budget be presented to town meeting or 
to city council, the fact that the school committee has deliberately prepared a compre- 
hensive statement of prospective requirements, with attention to details, will be significant. 
The town meeting or city council will experience difficulty in dealing in other than a 
business-like way with the school committee which comes before it with a well-formulated 
business proposition. At the same time, budgets should have a correspondingly stabiliz- 
ing effect upon school committees. The school committee in presenting a budget assumes 
two definite responsibilities which will be difficult to avoid : First, it binds itself reason- 
ably to adhere to the budget in the sense that school expenditures will be held within the 
amount stipulated; and, secondly, it binds itself to expend school money according to the 
budget for the purposes for which appropriations have been asked. The budget indicates 
the nicety with which the Survey Commission has attempted to adjust the balance betwixt 
school committee and town meeting or city council. The law unquestionably permits the 
school committee to exceed an appropriation, and requires the school committee to carry 



13 

on schools and charge up deficiencies when appropriations are insufficient. The Commis- 
sion reahzed that a statute depriving the school committee of the authority indicated would 
probably ultimately produce more harm than good. The Commission appreciated 
thoroughly the modem view that the exercise of municipal and other public functions 
should not be arbitrarily restricted. In school administration an unreasonable attitude of 
opposition to appropriations might destroy the effectiveness of school, committee manage- 
ment. At the same time, reasonable consideration for the town interest suggested the 
desirability of a check upon the school committee that would be effective and deterrent, 
but not so drastic as to curtail activity. The budget is the devide ; it is expected to prove 
workable. 

7. A more perfect enforcement of attendance may be expected. The superintendent 
is required to keep on the same card for each individual his census record and his school 
enrollment and attendance record, and to report promptly to truant officers failure to 
enroll or failure to attend school regularly. Neither officer can avoid responsibility with- 
out serious embarrassment, and possibly removal pursuant to the new authority to enforce 
law Conferred upon the State Board. The firm emphasis upon the keeping of records and 
upon reports by and from all schools, public and private, will assure ample information 
for the keeping of records. Moreover, average attendance is a prime factor in determining 
the amount of state support to be paid to the town. No superintendent can afford to 
report a wide margin between census enumeration and enrollment, or between enrollment 
and attendance, as indicated by low average attendance. The truant officer must maintain 
a reasonable balance between the number of cases reported to him by the superintendent 
and actual return of truants to school. 

8. The teacher's minimum salary is $650 hereafter. 

9. The collection of money or other articles of value from children in school, sales 
to or by teachers or pupils, soliciting subscriptions tO' promote sales, and other practices 
at once vexatious, embarrassing, anomalous, and utterly inconsistent with principles of 
free public education, are forbidden absolutely unless under rules and regulations pre- 
scribed by the school committee. Under a general provision of law the school committee 
rules and regulations are subject to censorship by the Commissioner. Our public schools 
are intended to be free. 

10. Student organizations, secret or otherwise, except organizations to which all 
pupils are eligible, and except organizations for legitimate school activities under the 
direction and supervision of teachers, are absolutely forbidden. 

Reports from Rhode Island towns and cities are indicating genuine progress. New- 
port has completed building an addition to Rogers High School, and a new nine-room 
elementary schoolhouse. Cranston has issued bonds for $175,000 for two new school- 
houses, and has employed an unassigned or visiting teacher. Westerly will expend 
$300,000 for new buildings. Smithfield has completed a new building at Esmond, and is 
planning another at Georgiaville. High school attendance Credited to this town has 
increased 33 per cent. Barrington and North Kingstown have revised courses of study. 
Coventry and Glocester report increased salaries for teachers. Central Falls reports a 
program of educational lectures, unusual development of evening schools, introduction of 
vocational guidance and vocational classes. South Kingstown is erecting a new nine- 
room building. Cumberland has strengthened the high school course of study, and has 
introduced domestic science in high school and upper elementary grades. 

In one feature of public education Rhode Island has been found unprepared to take 
advantage of progress in the making. For some years — indeed, for nearly ten years — the 
Trustees of the Rhode Island College of Education have requested provision for addi- 



14 

tional accommodations for the preparation of teachers for our public schools. 

In war times the request was abated; during and immediately following the war, 
enrollment was diminished, and the need for additional accommodations, while still fore- 
seen or to be reasonably expected within a short time, was not immediate. The General 
Assembly marked time, and the opportunity to prepare for a future that advanced beyond 
any expectation was neglected. Attendance lias increased by leaps and bounds. In Sep- 
tember one-half of those who applied for admission were turned away, to take their turn 
with another new entrance class. If by crowding, rearrangement of classroom accom- 
modations, increase of the faculty or overloading of faculty programs, more students 
could be taken into the college, there are no facilities at the present time for giving to 
additional numbers that part of the course which is of fundamental value — the opportu- 
nity for observation and practice teaching. At the present time, because of groups that 
are too large for the best or even effective work, this most important part of the college 
course is not attaining to standards that are commensurate with past achievements and con- 
sistent with a sincere regard for the best interest of public school education. There is an 
immediate, present, need ; at best, under conditions of immediate provision for the addi- 
tional building so sorely needed, relief cannot come within a year at least from favorable 
action by the General Assembly. There is need of concerted, tmited, well-planned and 
carefully sustained agitation for a new building. A campaign should be organized by the 
Institute of Instruction, without further delay, that will reach to every Assembly district 
in Rhode Island. There is need of educating the members of the General Assembly to a 
realization of their obligation jn this particular instance, and our teachers can undertake 
this work of education and can carry it on effectively. 

Outside of Rhode Island there is evidence of continued progress in education. From 
all sections of the country, reports of improvement are being constantly received. Our 
colleges, state and private, report unparalleled enrollment, and a tremendous increase of 
college education seems assured in spite of an inclination in some quarters to restrict 
enrollment and to intensify the process of selection. Our high schools no longer accom- 
modate the crowds that would enroll for secondary education, and towns and cities 
everywhere are striving to provide buildings for high schools, and revenues to support 
them. Unfortunately the war, elsewhere as in Rhode Island, interrupted building pro- 
grams, and frequent resort to half-time classes has been necessary. Vocational education 
is assuming its proper relative place in the educational program, with renewed attention 
to teacher training and a new definition of aims that promises continued advancement. 

In the field of administration, progress is notable in the present inclination to careful 
study of ways and means and expenditures. The present problem is not only to get 
money for education, but to make every dollar appropriated for public education do all 
the work that a dollar may be made to do. Studies of economies in public education with 
this end in view need not alarm, but should help to reassure the school officers whose 
principal trouble in the past has been the securing of money for school support. 

The evidence of educational activity is not confined to sections, to states, or to local- 
ities, but appears to cover the entire country. The! tone of educational journals is opti- 
mistic, and most wholesome. The profession of education has taken on new vigor. Sub- 
stantial increases in salaries have shown the schoolmaster that the general public has 
placed a new valuation on the schoolmaster's job; wherefore many schoolmasters and 
schoolma'ams have come to have a better and a more wholesome appreciation of their 
own position in the world. The inspiration has leavened the whole mass. The educa- 
tional literature of the day, with its buoyant urge and irresistible summons to optimism, 
merely reflects the psychological attitude of the schoolman. The best product of the 



times is the fact that schoolmasters, and schoolma'ams, too, have begun to take themselves 
seriously and have begun to believe the good things which are said about them. No' one 
respects the person who^ doesn't respect himself. If the schoolmasters, and schoolma'ams 
too, do not boost their own jobs, no one else will do the boosting. 

It is significant to notice that elsewhere, as in Rhode Island, commissioners, superin- 
tendents, and school boards have shown a united front in promoting the welfare of 
teachers. These administrative and executive officers have first-hand information of the 
needs of the teacher. These officers also have experience and training for accomplish- 
ment. They have been of invaluable assistance in promoting salary raises and other 
matters that affect teacher welfare. They have applied themselves with unselfish dili- 
gence to promoting teacher welfare, because teacher welfare is of principal importance in 
a well conducted school system. The teachers of the United States have been more for- 
tunate than any other group of workers in maintaining organizations in which officer and 
teacher have met for the common purpose of promoting the welfare of all. It would be 
unfortunate — indeed, it would be a calamity — were the close community of interest and 
bond of association between officers and teachers severed. There is still need for a united 
front in education, and the teacher needs the help of the superintendent as the superin- 
tendent needs the help of the teacher. There is still need for preserving in Rhode Island 
this splendid type of educational association — The Rhode Island Institute of Instruction, in 
which officer and teacher meet on common ground for the consideration of problems of 
welfare in which both have mutual interests. 



REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON LEGISLATION 

OCTOBER 28, 1922 



The Committee on Legislation met and organized in December and discussed needed 
legislation but decided to defer definite action until the State Commission on School 
Administration and Finance had made its report to the General Assembly. 

After a bill embodying the recommendations of the Commission had been introduced 
in the House, the members of your Committee attended the hearings and v/orked for its 
passage. We are glad to report that the bill, as amended, became a law on May 1, 1922. 

At the request of the Association of School Superintendents your Committee pre- 
pared a bill to make the education requirement of the factory inspection law the same as 
that of the Americanization law. This bill failed to pass, as a bill raising the educational 
requirement under the factory inspection law to the completion of the sixth grade received 
favorable consideration by the Assembly and became a law. 

A law was passed increasing the appropriation for the education of the adult blind, 
one permitting the Rhode Island State College to loan money to college societies for pur- 
chasing homes for student dormitories, another requiring the teaching of government as 
embodied in the Constitution of Rhode Island and the Constitution of the United States in 
all public and private schools in the seventh and eighth grades, and one permitting truant 
officers to commit children to the State Home and School on conviction as habitual 
truants or habitual school offenders.

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON TEACHERS' WELFARE 

OCTOBER 28, 1922 



The work of the Committee on Teachers' Welfare for the year has been the gather- 
ing of information from the thirty-nine towns and cities of the State regarding the 
following : 1. Teachers' organizations. 2. Tenure of office for teachers. 3. Payment of 
teachers when absent from school on account of personal illness or for death in the family. 
4. The practice in regard to the teachers' contracts. 5. The status of married women as 
teachers. This report briefly summarizes such information as we have gathered. 

Only four towns and cities have rules regarding employment of married women 
teachers. In Providence, West Warwick, Woonsocket, and Central Falls, the marriage 
of teachers in service is equivalent to resignation, although such teachers may be employed 
as substitutes. Elsewhere in the State, apparently, married as well as unmarried women 
may be employed for any position for which they are fitted. 

Eleven towns and cities in the State require the signing of a printed contract. In 
others, verbal contracts only are required, generally to the efifect that teachers will not 
resign without giving at least a month's notice. This is an indication that teachers in 
Rhode Island are in the habit of keeping their agreements. 

Sixteen cities or towns allow some pay for absence due to personal illness : Bristol — 
full pay 10 days. Central Falls — one third pay for 20 days. Charlestown — five days. 
Cranston — difference between salary and that of the substitute's for indefinite period. 
Cumberland — one half pay for five days. East Providence — one third salary for 10 days. 
Hopkinton — four days. Lincoln — full salary for two days. Newport — full pay for 20 
days in one year. North Providence — left to Superintendent. Pawtucket — full salary for 
one week. Providence^ — one third salary for 10 days of any pay roll. South Kingstown — 
full pay for 10 days. Warren — full pay 10 days. Westerly — full pay for 10 days, one 
half pay for 10 days. Woonsocket — one third of salary for one week. The above towns 
allow from two to five days' full pay for absence due to death in immediate family. 

Our returns show that only Central Falls, Newport, Providence, Cumberland, and 
Lincoln have real tenure of office for teachers. The rule of the School Committee of the 
Town of Lincoln is given as typical of these. 

"Teachers who shall have served for three successive years may, by vote of 
the Board, be placed on permanent tenure of office and shall not thereafter be 
subject to removal except for such misconduct as the Board may deem a dis- 
qualification for the position. All such removals shall be made by the School 
Board, upon charges made in writing, which charges shall first be submitted to 
the Committee on Qualifications and served on the teachers on whom charges 
have been made. The teacher shall be given a hearing upon the charges before 
said Committee, not less than one week after the serving of the charges. Upon 
conclusion of the hearing the Committee shall refer conviction to the Board, in 
which body the final decision of the case rests." 

Several towns and cities have, a provision which '"does away with the formality of 
the election of a teacher" after the expiration of a certain number of years, but in such 
cases the right of dismissal after a fixed notice is specifically reserved. This is not, of 
course, real tenure. Tenure of office for teachers should be common instead of rare in 
Rhode Island. 

Teachers should receive full pay for at least four weeks' absence on account of per- 
sonal illness, and it does not seem out of reason to look forward to the time when public 



17 

school teachers will be taken care of as well as are the employees of the American Tele- 
phone & Telegraph Co'., who after a long period of service may receive full pay for a 
period of fifty-two weeks when incapacitated for work. 

The Committee believes that improvement in these particulars and in all teachers' 
welfare must be brought about by united effort of individual teachers through local 
teachers' organizations. 

There are such organizations in only sixteen towns and cities of the State. The pur- 
poses of these organizations, as indicated in their constitutions, range from "the securing 
of higher salaries" in Johnston, to "the securing of means to provide medical and surgical 
attention to needy school children," one of the aims' stated for the Westerly Teachers' 
Club. Typical statements of aim are : "Teachers' welfare, co-operation, mental improve- 
ment of teachers in service, social and literary," of East Providence; "social, literary, 
professional," of West Warwick. The history of most of these organizations does not 
show marked activity to improve teachers' welfare, except to secure higher wages. 

The Committee urges upon the teachers' organizations of the State the desirability of 
more activity in these directions. In towns where there are no such organizations steps 
should be taken to form them. It goes without saying that unless teachers themselves are 
striving to improve their welfare, others are not likely to improve it for them.

RESOLUTIONS 

ADOPTED OCTOBER 28, 1922 



Resolved : First, That this association commends and thanks the four busy men of 
affairs who, with the Commissioner of Education, gave their time, ability, and experience 



to the study of the needs of the public schools and who submitted to the General Assembly 
a report on which was based the new laws of 1922. 

Second, As the chief business of the public schools is "to- support the democracy that 
supports the schools," we welcome these new laws relating to education and pledge our- 
selves to a faithful compliance with them. We commend the action of the General 
Assembly in enacting into law the Education Act of the Special Commission to Survey 
School Finance and Administration; the increase in the state's annual appropriation by 
more than 125 per cent; the definite requirement for a minimum municipal three-mill 
tax ; the provision for applying the income of the permanent school f tind as an emergency 
appropriaton ; the increase in the teachers' minimum salary ; the measures to promote uni- 
form accounting and to restrict extravagance and waste of school money ; and the various 
provisions whereby the definitions of legal rights and duties are made explicit and whereby 
the enforcement of the school laws in all parts of the State is made more certain. All 
these suggest the beginning of a new advance in the Rhode Island school system. 

Third, That in accordance with these new laws relating to "the principles of popular 
and representative government" we welcome the additional legal responsibility for 
instructing our pupils in the Constitution and history of Rhode Island and the Constitu- 
tion and government of the United States. We believe that such instruction is essential 
for intelligent citizenship in a democracy. 

Fourth, That in consideration of the shortage of teachers in the State, and the fact 
that more than one hundred of applicants as prospective teachers were denied admission 
to the school on account of the lack of accommodations, The Rhode Island Institute of 
Instruction instructs its committee on legislation to use every effort possible to secure an 
appropriation for a new building for the Rhode Island College of Education. 

Fifth, "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he." We teachers should create a peace- 
thinking citizenry. To this end we must take advantage of our daily work in history, 
geography, and literature as well as of the special occasions for which the Commissioner 
of Education must prepare programs. We must teach those facts about other nations 
that make for kinship. 

Sixth, That the commendation of this Institute is hereby extended to the State Board 
of Education fof its action in providing for the higher professional recognition of the 
teacher through certification. 

Seventh, That the Institute thanks all those who in the preparation and presentation 
of the program and in all other duties pertaining to this Institute have made the meetings 
of 1922 successful and helpful to the cause of public education in Rhode Island. 



REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON EDUCATIONAL PROGRESS 

OCTOBER 28. 1922 



The year 1922 is one of the most wonderful in Rhode Island educational history. It 
is not alone that a traveller from New Zealand has stood upon Weybosset bridge, to para- 
phrase the famous remark of Macaulay, and visited Rhode Island College of Education, 
but that the visitor was directed on his way thither by the Boston school authorities. 
Surely an old order has passed away when a resident of the Hub of the Universe has 
become conscious of a world beyond his own narrow circle and has suggested the pos- 
sibility of there being something worthy of seeing in the N'arragansett Bay country. It 
is true, nevertheless, that Rhode Island College of Education has never so much as at the 
present time held the esteem of Rhode Island teachers, and has never attracted so much 



10 

attention from the world of education beyond. Over 700 visitors from outside Rhode 
Island visited the College during the last school year, to study first hand the splendid 
demonstrations of the teaching art and the significant experiments being conducted in the 
Henry Barnard School. 

There have been other notable years in Rhode Island school history. In 1640 Rhode 
Island established the first American public school. In 1800 the Rhode Island General 
Assembly enacted the first state-wide mandatory free public school law. The city system of 
free schools in Providence is the oldest free school system in America. In 1838 the honor of 
electing the first American superintendent of public schools fell to a Rhode Island school 
committee. In 1843 the Rhode Island General Assembly ordered the first survey of an 
American state public school system. In 1844 Rhode Island enacted the first child labor 
and compulsory attendance law. In 1922 the General Assembly enacted a new general 
education law that contains provisions vastly significant for the improvement of public 
schools, and some provisions that mark progress in educational administration nowhere 
equalled. 

There have been several revisions of Rhode Island school law. The Barnard law of 
1845 was in part a revision and codification of existing law, with the introduction of a 
systematic organization, and the outlines of a general plan along which public education 
might be developed. It has been fortunate for Rhode Island that Barnard builded as he 
did upon comprehensive foundations and that he had at least the imagination, if not indeed 
the clear vision, that would make his general plan satisfactory for three quarters of a 
century. In 1851 there was another revision, in which the hand of that master craftsman 
in legal literature, Elisha R. Potter, wielded a pen which wrote into statutory laiiguage 
the masterful educational conception of the great schoolman. The General Statutes have 
been revised many times since 1851; the eminent lawyers who have served upon the com- 
missions appointed to conduct revisions have altered the arrangement of detail, but have 
not meddled with language or ventured to deviate from principle. The act of 1922 is 
most sweeping in its changes, most emphatic in the force which it has put into and behind 
the statutes, and yet the general plan is the same. Another group of master craftsmen 
have worked upon the old structure^ — they have strengthened it here, they have straightened 
out a timber there that had become warped through overstrain, they have introduced a 
brace here and there, they have added something for symmetry and something to round 
out a place where the detail was incomplete, and still our schools go on much better than 
ever before, and without the sign of revolution that so frequently mars or obstructs 
genuine educational progress. 

The outstanding features of the new law are these : 

1. The income of the permanent school fund, amounting to $12,000 annually, here- 
tofore covered into the general treasury to offset the annual appropriation for schools, is 
appropriated annually as an emergency fund to be apportioned by the Commissioner and 
the State Board of Education. This appropriation replaces the annual appropriation for 
deficient schools, amounting to $5000; the new apportionment is not restricted as was the 
older appropriation, and the money becomes available for apportionment to towns for any 
legitimate purpose. 

2. For violation of, or neglect to comply with, school law on the part of any school 
officer or school committee, the State Board is authorized to stop payment of state assist- 
ance to towns until the conduct complained of is remedied, and any order entered in 
the premises by the Board has been complied with. This is one of the most comprehen- 
sive amendments ever made to the school law, because it establishes a definite and at the 
same time an indeterminate penalty applicable to every provision of the statutes and the 



common law of schools. While it has been true that very many of our school laws are 
mandatory in form, there has sometimes been a disposition to treat even mandatory stat- 
utes as non-enforceable for want of a penalty. The new law provides a penalty. For the 
first time in the rrtore than half a century of its existence, the State Board is in a position 
to make effective its authority to supervise and to control the public school system, and to 
enforce the rules and regulations that it is empowered to adopt to supplement the statutes. 
The Board itself may not avoid responsibility under the new statute; it is required to 
report to the General Assembly every infraction of the law which shall be brought to its 
attention, with a record of its action thereon. 

3. For purposes of the compulsory attendance law the approval of private schools 
and private education has been transferred from town school committees to the State 
Board of Education. Private schools are required to keep records of the same character 
and in similar form to records kept in public schools, and to make similar reports. This 
provision is an extension of a similar provision in effect for private secondary schools for 
nearly 15 years. Under the new law the Board will follow the policy already practiced 
with reference to secondary schools, and through general rules and regulations establish a 
uniform basis for inspection and approval. The power to inspect is not new; it has been 
in the laws of Rhode Island for more than 30 years. The advantages to public education, 
using the term in the liberal sense of the education of all the people, are patent, and 
scarcely suggest discussion. The advantages to private education will include a single 
standard for approval that will replace the diversified standard under local approval, and 
an irrefutable answer to criticism or innuendo, that is, that approval has followed fair 
and impartial inspection, and certifies maintenance of satisfactory provision in the private 
schools for education of the children sent to them. It is true that there has been a dis- 
position on the part of politicians to criticise this particular feature of the new law, but 
the criticism has not been intelligent or even coherent. The same politicians who at the 
present time are appealing for a reversion to local inspection and approval were willing to 
accept state supervision in exchange for a surrender of the requirement that English shall 
continue to be the language in which the common branches are taught, to the end that every 
child preparing for citizenship in Rhode Island may know the common language. On 
this particular issue there dan be only one opinion held by patriotic Americans. The issue 
joined in the General Assembly on the Education bill involved the teaching of English. 
The survey commission met the issue squarely. As a matter of fact, private schools have 
nothing to fear from impartial and just inspection. We quote the exact language used by 
Rt. Rev. Bishop McDevitt of Harrisburg in a recent discussion of the entire subject. He 
said, "No harm will come to our Catholic school system from state supervision, if the 
secular authorities are fair, just, and impartial." The Rhode Island State Board of Edu- 
cation exemplifies all three qualities to an unusual degree. The spirit of Roger Williams 
and the broad foundations of religious toleration in Rhode Island will not permit other 
than fair, just, and impartial inspection and approval. The people of Rhode Island are 
fair, just, and impartial in their attitude, and the good reputation of Rhode Island never 
has been questioned in this particular. The people of Rhode Island know how to deal 
with public officers who exercise their official functions in ways that are not fair, just, 
and impartial. So far as the issue concerns language, there can be no lingering doubt 
that the vast majority of the race to which an appeal has been directed is keen to the 
necessity of teaching their children English. It is to be regretted that the clamor of a 
few has been mistaken for an expression of the views of the majority. 

4. The State Board of Education may conduct surveys of the public schools of any 
town, or upon the request of a school committee is required to conduct a survey. In either 



instance a specific report must be made to the General Assembly. A school committee 
that finds it impossible from state and local school money to conduct schools of a reason- 
able standard may request the State Board to take over the schools for a year. The two 
provisions indicate possibilities for improvement of schools under circumstances that 
hitherto have suggested almost insurmountable difficulties. It is not anticipated that the 
Board will be called upon to take over the control of schools in many instances. The 
advantages of temporary state administration, and more particularly of comprehensive 
surveys, would lie in the collection of data, in view of which remedial legislation may be 
drafted. No one questions seriously to-day the responsibility of the state for providing 
means whereby children everywhere may be educated for citizenship. This responsibility 
may not be avoided by imposing the responsibility upon a municipal agency. The inevi- 
table results of a policy of evasion lie both in inequality in the distribution of the burden 
of supporting public education and in inequality in the provision of opportunities for edu- 
cation. The new legislation indicates a disposition on the part of the State to restore an 
equitable balance betwixt state and town. The deficiency appropriaion of the past decade 
has been merely palliative ; the State has now faced the problem squarely. 

5. The increase in the major annual appropriation of 125 per cent for the year of 
1922, and further annual increase depending upon average attendance, is another indication 
of a keener sense of state responsibility. It is true that a much larger increase was justi- 
fied by the findings of the survey commission, but the advance is significant. For the 
first time in the history of Rhode Island public schools the law has established a definite 
minimum town tax for school support, and to insure against relapse of municipal effort no 
town is permitted, in view of increased state support, to reduce town appropriations below 
the average for the three years of 1919, 1920, and 1921. The three mill minimum school 
tax has been exceeded by most towns for several years ; it will require larger appropria- 
tions in a few instances. The minimum tax is a progressive measure in the sense that the 
amount of the tax will increase automatically with increased valuations. 

6. From the point of view of administration, the uniform system of accounting to be 
introduced under the provisions of the law that require the keeping of records in books 
and on forms prescribed by the Commissioner, with the supplementary provision for 
auditing accounts by the Commissioner, is scarcely more important than the provision 
that establishes a new basis for financial relations betwixt school committee and town 
through the requirement that a budget shall be prepared and presented annually on forms 
prescribed by the Commissioner. The budget unquestionably will strengthen the position 
of the school committee in the annual negotiations through which the amounts of appro- 
priations for schools are adjudged. Whether the budget be presented to town meeting or 
to city council, the fact that the school committee has deliberately prepared a compre- 
hensive statement of prospective requirements, with attention to details, will be significant. 
The town meeting or city council will experience difficulty in dealing in other than a 
business-like way with the school committee which comes before it with a well-formulated 
business proposition. At the same time, budgets should have a correspondingly stabiliz- 
ing effect upon school committees. The school committee in presenting a budget assumes 
two definite responsibilities which will be difficult to avoid : First, it binds itself reason- 
ably to adhere to the budget in the sense that school expenditures will be held within the 
amount stipulated ; and, secondly, it binds itself to expend school money according to the 
budget for the purposes for which appropriations have been asked. The budget indicates 
the nicety with which the Survey Commission has attempted to adjust the balance betwixt 
school committee ancj town meeting or city council. The law unquestionably permits the 
school committee to exceed an appropriation, and requires the school committee to carry 



13 

on schools and charge up deficiencies wheri appropriations are insufficient. The Commis- 
sion realized that a statute depriving the school committee of the authority indicated would 
probably ultimately produce more harm than good. The Commission appreciated 
thoroughly the modern view that the exercise of municipal and other public functions 
should not be arbitrarily restricted. In school administration an unreasonable attitude of 
opposition to appropriations might destroy the effectiveness of school, committee manage- 
ment. At the same time, reasonable consideration for the town interest suggested the 
desirability of a check upon the school committee that would be effective and deterrent, 
but not so drastic as to curtail activity. The budget is the device ; it is expected to prove 
workable. 

7. A more perfect enforcement of attendance may be expected. The superintendent 
is required to keep on the same card for each individual his census record and his school 
enrollment and attendance record, and to report promptly to truant officers failure to 
enroll or failure to attend school regularly. Neither officer can avoid responsibility with- 
out serious embarrassment, and possibly removal pursuant to the new authority to enforce 
law Conferred upon the State Board. The firm emphasis upon the keeping of records and 
upon reports by and from all schools, public and private, will assure ample information 
for the keeping of records. Moreover, average attendance is a prime factor in determining 
the amount of state support to be paid to the town. No superintendent can afford to 
report a wide margin between census enumeration and enrollment, or between enrollment 
and attendance, as indicated by low average attendance. The truant officer must maintain 
a reasonable balance between the number of cases reported to him by the superintendent 
and actual return of truants to school. 

8. The teacher's minimum salary is $650 hereafter. 

9. The collection of money or other articles of value from children in school, sales 
to or by teachers or pupils, soliciting subscriptions to promote sales, and other practices 
at once vexatious, embarrassing, anomalous, and utterly inconsistent with principles of 
free public education, are forbidden absolutely unless under rules and regulations pre- 
scribed by the school committee. Under a general provision of law the school committee 
rules and regulations are subject to censorship by the Commissioner. Our public schools 
are intended to be free. 

10. Student organizations, secret or otherwise, except organizations to which all 
pupils are eligible, and except organizations for legitimate school activities under the 
direction and supervision of teachers, are absolutely forbidden. 

Reports from Rhode Island towns and cities are indicating genuine progress. New- 
port has completed building an addition to Rogers High School, and a new nine-room 
elementary schoolhouse. Cranston has issued bonds for $175,000 for two new school- 
hous-es, and has employed an unassigned or visiting teacher. Westerly will expend 
$300,000 for new buildings. Smithfield has completed a new building at Esmond, and is 
planning another at Georgiaville. High school attendance Credited to this town has 
increased 33 per cent. Barrington and North Kingstown have revised courses of study. 
Coventry and Glocester report increased salaries for teachers. Central Falls reports a 
program of educational lectures, unusual development of evening schools, introduction of 
vocational guidance and vocational classes. South Kingstown is erecting a new nine- 
room building. Cumberland has strengthened the high school course of study, and has 
introduced domestic science in high school and upper elementary grades. 

In one feature of public education Rhode Island has been found unprepared to take 
advantage of progress in the making. For some years — indeed, for nearly ten years — the 
Trustees of the Rhode Island College of Education have requested provision for addi- 



14 

tional accommodations for the preparation of teachers for our public schools. 

In war times the request was abated; during and immediately following the war, 
enrollment was diminished, and the need for additional accommodations, while still fore- 
seen or to be reasonably expected within a short time, was not immediate. The General 
Assembly marked time, and the opportunity to prepare for a future that advanced beyond 
any expectation was neglected. Attendance has increased by leaps and bounds. In Sep- 
tember one-half of those who applied for admission were turned away, to take their turn 
with another new entrance class. If by crowding, rearrangement of classroom accom- 
modations, increase of the faculty or overloading of faculty programs, more students 
could be taken into the college, there are no facilities at the present time for giving to 
additional numbers that part of the course which is of fundamental value — the opportu- 
nity for observation and practice teaching. At the present time, because of groups that 
are too large for the best or even effective work, this most important part of the college 
course is not attaining to standards that are commensurate with past achievements and con- 
sistent with a sincere regard for the best interest of public school education. There is an 
immediate, present, need ; at best, under conditions of immediate provision for the addi- 
tional building so sorely needed, relief cannot come within a year at least from favorable 
action by the General Assembly. There is need of concerted, united, well-planned and 
carefully sustained agitation for a new building. A campaign should be organized by the 
Institute of Instruction, without further delay, that will reach to every Assembly district 
in Rhode Island. There is need of educating the members of the General Assembly to a 
realization of their obligation in this particular instance, and our teachers can undertake 
this work of education and can carry it on effectively. 

Outside of Rhode Island there is evidence of continued progress in education. From 
all sections of the country, reports of improvement are being constantly received. Our 
colleges, state and private, report unparalleled enrollment, and a tremendous increase of 
college education seems assured in spite of an inclination in some quarters to restrict 
enrollment and to intensify the process of selection. Our high schools no longer accom- 
modate the crowds that would enroll for secondary education, and towiis and cities 
everywhere are striving to provide buildings for high schools, and revenues to support 
them. Unfortunately the war, elsewhere as in Rhode Island, interrupted building pro- 
grams, and frequent resort to half-time classes has been necessary. Vocational education 
is assuming its proper relative place in the educational program, with renewed attention 
to teacher training and a new definition of aims that promises continued advancement. 

In the field of administration, progress is notable in the present inclination to careful 
study of ways and means and expenditures. The present problem is not only to get 
money for education, but to make every dollar appropriated for public education do all 
the work that a dollar may be made to do. Studies of economies in public education with 
this end in view need not alarm, but should help to reassure the school officers whose 
principal trouble in the past has been the securing of money for school support. 

The evidence of educational activity is not confined to sections, to states, or to local- 
ities, but appears to cover the entire country. Thd tone of educational journals is opti- 
mistic, and most wholesome. The profession of education has taken on new vigor. Sub- 
stantial increases in salaries have shown the schoolmaster that the general public has 
placed a new valuation on the schoolmaster's job; wherefore many schoolmasters and 
schoolma'ams have come to have a better and a more wholesome appreciation of their 
own position in the world. The inspiration has leavened the whole mass. The educa- 
tional literature of the day, with its buoyant urge and irresistible summons to optimism, 
merely reflects the psychological attitude of the schoolman. The best product of the 



15 

times is the fact that schoolmasters, and schoolma'ams, too, have begnn to take themselves 
seriously and have begun to believe the good things which are said about them. No one 
respects the person who doesn't respect himself. If the schoolmasters, and schoolma'ams 
too, do not boost their own jobs, no one else will do the boosting. 

It is significant to notice that elsewhere, as in Rhode Island, commissioners, superin- 
tendents, and school boards have shown a united front in promoting the welfare of 
teachers. These administrative and executive officers have first-hand information of the 
needs of the teacher. These officers also have experience and training for accomplish- 
ment. The}^ have been of invaluable assistance in promoting salary raises and other 
matters that affect teacher welfare. They have applied themselves with unselfish dili- 
gence to promoting teacher welfare, because teacher welfare is of principal importance in 
a well conducted school system. The teachers of the United States have been more for- 
tunate than any other group of workers in maintaining organizations in which officer and 
teacher have met for the common purpose of promoting the welfare of all. It would be 
unfortunate — indeed, it would be a calamity — were the close community of interest and 
bond of association between officers and teachers severed. There is still need for a united 
front in education, and the teacher needs the help of the superintendent as the superin- 
tendent needs the help of the teacher. There is still need for preserving in Rhode Island 
this splendid type of educational association— The Rhode Island Institute of Instruction, in 
which officer and teacher meet on common ground for the consideration of problems of 
welfare in which both have mutual interests. 



REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON LEGISLATION 

OCTOBER 28, 1922 



The Committee on Legislation met and organized in December and discussed needed 
legislation but decided to defer definite action until the State Commission on School 
Administration and Finance had made its report to the General Assembly. 

After a bill embodying the recommendations of the Commission had been introduced 
in the House, the members of your Committee attended the hearings and worked for its 
passage. We are glad to report that the bill, as amended, became a law on May 1, 1922. 

At the request of the Association of School Superintendents your Committee pre- 
pared a bill to make the education requirement of the factory inspection law the same as 
that of the Americanization law. This bill failed to pass, as a bill raising the educational 
requirement under the factory inspection law to the completion of the sixth grade received 
favorable consideration by the Assembly and became a law. 

A law was passed increasing the appropriation for the education of the adult blind, 
one permitting the Rhode Island State College to loan money to college societies for pur- 
chasing homes for student dormitories, another requiring the teaching of government as 
embodied in the Constitution of Rhode Island and the Constitution of the United States in 
all public and private schools in the seventh and eighth grades, and one permitting truant 
officers to commit children to the State Home and School on conviction as habitual 
truants or habitual school offenders.

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON TEACHERS' WELFARE 

OCTOBER 28, 1922 



The work of the Committee on Teachers' Welfare for the year has been the gather- 
ing of information from the thirty-nine towns and cities of the State regarding the 
following: 1. Teachers' organizations. 2. Tenure of office for teachers. 3. Payment of 
teachers when absent from school on account of personal illness or for death in the family. 
4. The practice in regard to the teachers' contracts. 5. The status of married women as 
teachers. This report briefly summarizes such information as we have gathered. 

Only four towns and cities have rules regarding employment of married women 
teachers. In Providence, West Warwick, Woonsocket, and Central Falls, the marriage 
of teachers in service is equivalent to resignation, although such teachers may be employed 
as substitutes. Elsewhere in the State, apparently, married as well as unmarried women 
may be employed for any position for which they are fitted. 

Eleven towns and cities in the State require the signing of a printed contract. In 
others, verbal contracts only are required, generally to the effect that teachers will not 
resign without giving at least a month's notice. This is an indication that teachers in 
Rhode Island are in the habit of keeping their agreements. 

Sixteen cities or towns allow some pay for absence due to personal illness : Bristol — 
full pay 10 days. Central Falls — one third pay for 20 days. Charlestown — five days. 
Cranston — difference between salary and that of the substitute's for indefinite period. 
Cumberland — one half pay for five days. East Providence — one third salary for 10 days. 
Hopkinton — four days. Lincoln— full salary for two days. Newport — full pay for 20 
days in one year. North Providence — left to Superintendent. Pawtucket — full salary for 
one week. Providence — one third salary for 10 days of any pay roll. South Kingstown — 
full pay for 10 days. Warren — full pay 10 days. Westerly — full pay for 10 days, one 
half pay for 10 days. Woonsocket — one third of salary for one week. The above towns 
allow from two to five days' full pay for absence due to death in immediate family. 

Our returns show that only Central Falls, Newport, Providence, Cumberland, and 
Lincoln have real tenure of office for teachers. The rule of the School Committee of the 
Town of Lincoln is given as typical of these. 

"Teachers who shall have served for three successive years may, by vote of 
the Board, be placed on permanent tenure of office and shall not thereafter be 
subject to removal except for such misconduct as the Board may deem a dis- 
qualification for the position. All such removals shall be made by the School 
Board, upon charges made in writing, which charges shall first be submitted to 
the Committee on Qualifications and served on the teachers on whom charges 
have been made. The teacher shall be given a hearing upon the charges before 
said Committee, not less than one week after the serving of the charges. Upon 
conclusion of the hearing the Committee shall refer conviction to the Board, in 
which body the final decision of the case rests." 

Several towns and cities have a provision which "does away with the formality of 
the election of a teacher" after the expiration of a certain number of years, but in such 
cases the right of dismissal after a fixed notice is specifically reserved. This is not, of 
course, real tenure. Tenure of office for teachers should be common instead of rare in 
Rhode Island. 

Teachers should receive full pay for at least four weeks' absence on account of per- 
sonal illness, and it does not seem out of reason to look forward to the time when public 



17 

school teachers will be taken care of as well as are the employees of the American Tele- 
phone & Telegraph Co., who after a long period of service may receive full pay for a 
period of fifty-two weeks when incapacitated for work. 

The Committee believes that improvement in these particulars and in all teachers' 
welfare must be brought about by united effort of individual teachers through local 
teachers' organizations. 

There are such organizations in only sixteen towns and cities of the State. The pur- 
poses of these organizations, as indicated in their constitutions, range from "the securing 
of higher salaries" in Johnston, to "the securing of means to provide medical and surgical 
attention to needy school children," one of the aims stated for the Westerly Teachers' 
Club. Typical statements of aim are : "Teachers' welfare, co-operation, mental improve- 
ment of teachers in service, social and literary," of East Providence; "social, literary, 
professional," of West Warwick. The history of most of these organizations does not 
show marked activity to improve teachers' welfare, except to secure higher wages. 

The Committee urges upon the teachers' organizations of the State the desirability of 
more activity in these directions. In towns where there are no such organizations steps 
should be taken to form them. It goes without saying that unless teachers themselves are 
striving to improve their welfare, others are not likely to improve it for them.
